BIO
Hi, I’m Diego, also known as DEKA or DK. I’m originally from Tierra del Fuego, Patagonia, Argentina, and currently based in La Plata, Buenos Aires. I focus on building high-quality web applications where every detail matters, from the stack to the tools to the final experience. I enjoy working across the full stack. In my free time, I climb, either at the gym or, even better, on real rock.
I have a Licentiates' Degree in Computer Science from the National University of La Plata / UNLP - Informática.
Since late 2025, I have been exploring the AI landscape and working on new approaches to product development. I am available to augment your team or take full ownership of a feature or project, delivering from concept to production.
Connecting ideas, shaping products.
