About
Hi I’m Alejandro Piñeiro Iglesias.
As you can see my initials form API … the world is filled with coincidences.
I was born at Vigo, but I lived at Coruña for several years, since I was about 4, almost 5, years old.
I always like computer science, first because videogames (do you remember the Atari2600?) let me to be curious about this strange machines, and about how you could make theirs programs. I start to program in some courses at the school an then I continue on a 386 PC at home.
When I grow up I coursed computer science at FIC, and I became a Computer Science Engineer.
Currently I’m a worker at Igalia, working on different Gnome-related projects like Fisterra , Build Brigade, Hildon widgets, accessibility (I’m the maintainer of Hail and Cally), etc
At last I can say that I have some hobbies, like spent the weekend lazying with my friends, playing “futbolín”, tute, and some random times soccer. I like too the music and films. Recently the musician seed of my family growth a little, and I started to learn to play the bass guitar. I played some classics and I’m the bassist of an amateur rock band called SiVE.
