I'm Juan Paulo, but you can call me just J.P.. I learned Full-Stack Web Development at Microverse (highly recommended). I'm currently working as a Consultant at Apex Systems. I'm also bootstrapping an EdTech Startup (check here).
π― My goal is to develop innovative learning materials for high school students
and shorten the achievement gap in Latin America.
I studied Linguistics at National School of Anthropology and History, and Sociology at National Autonomous University of Mexico. It could sound that I did a career shift into Web Development, but I didn't. My pregraduate research work was about the language policies in the education system of Mexico. I learned Web Development because I considerer it as a powerful tool to deliver better policies in the education system.
Right now, my main project is the company that I founded: Daiuk.
I showcase my Full-Stack Web Development projects here.
I'm also a sporadical contributor of cultural magazines as Nexos; and a regular contributor of tech-related blogs such as Hackernoon.
I have drafted a novel and a book of short stories. I would like to have a long vacation to finish those books.
I love writing, and I host a Shut & Write Meet Up at Guadalajara. I'm not bad, I even won second place in a short stories contest! (if you read in Spanish, I hope you can enjoy it).
I like to read science fiction, realism, and pop science books. π
For a long time, my favorite sport was chess. But as I spend a lot of time in a chair, I rarely play chess now. My current hobbies are riding the bicycle and running. However, I am always ready for a chess match. Challenge me! βοΈ π¦Ύ

For a while, I was paid for doing memes in a local newspaper. π
You can reach me through Twitter or LinkedIn or here, in GitHub (I guess that you don't need a link for that π)
