[akita] Chatting with Luis Lavena (Ruby on Windows)

AkitaOnRails: Ok. So, let’s start. First of all thank you for your time. This is very funny because we are like 5 hours apart. You’re in Paris right now, but I understand you were in Argentina. Can you tell us what you are doing now?

Luis Lavena: Yeah, funny indeed. Right now I’m Technical director of an interactive and design agency with offices in NY and Paris. My job is to bridge the design field with the technology one, mostly on web based application development.

I’m from Argentina, live there, family and friends. Now moved a few months to boost some developments and get first steps of the new organization in place.

I’m from a small province named Tucuman, northwest area of Argentina (1200 kms from Buenos Aires to be exact)

An interview like post that I have enjoyed reading per general. It is important the developers from all around the world communicate and this kind of interviews ( friendly made ) are quite a nice thing to read.

Actually, in my humble opinion it would have been more nice to have it recorded ( video recorded ) and posted as it was. The whole point of the recorded interviews is that you can see the expression of the man. A gesture is sometime more important than some words listed in a phrase.

Yet, still was a nice interview. Full post is here
