About

Hi, I'm Diego also known as DEKA | DK (he/him). Class '85. Natural from Tierra del Fuego, Patagonia, Argentina.

I have a Licentiate's Degree in Computer Science from the National University of La Plata, UNLP - Informática.

In 2018, I co-founded GEUT, an exclusive software consultancy company and a Lab for P2P projects. A few years later in Q4 2020, started SHER. GEUT's flagship P2P product. You can read more about it here.

Always looking to mix ideas, like an alchemist for thoughts.

My current goal is around learning & shaping the business-side of SHER, the decentralized live audio platform.


Some of my previous experience includes, working on companies like Despegar and Labs like LIFIA. In Despegar my role was Fullstack Engineer. One of the projects where I play a part was about creating something like components as a service. Those were rendered and consumed by different teams.

I've also spent some time working as an Assistant Professor at my alma mater. The subjects where about "User Centered Design" and "Mobile Devices' Interfaces". I was on charge of some lectures and preparing practical exercises. This was a fantastic experience, hopefully I might repeat it someday.
