Roland's blog

I am a web developer mainly focusing in business logic and advertising. I love open source and I'm a big fan of Linux. My favorite framework is Rails, I've been quite fond of it since 2004, and my favorite language is, you guessed, Ruby. However, I also enjoy coding in other languages such as PHP, Python, Coldfusion, and Perl. As a developer I have worn many hats: sys-admin, dba, designer, architect etc. Over time I've built a lot on my formal education in Computer Science, and have a pretty good grasp on most topics related to the aforementioned positions.

Currently, I am a student at Indiana University in the Masters of CS Program. I must say, I missed school and I'm glad to return to grad school.

I hold B.A. with two majors Computer Science and Mathematics, and I'm almost done with my M.S. in Computer Science as I need to write a thesis. I'm vegetarian and an animal-rights supporter and I'm very fond of cats. So far I have four cats: Maggie, Nina, Felix, and Lilly.
