About Me
Hello, my name is Santiago Gutierrez Gonzalez. I am a young and energetic person who believes that learning is a fundamental part of living a fulfilling life. That is why I am always interested in taking on new projects to acquire new knowledge and improve as a person and developer on a daily basis. I am aware of my weaknesses and strive to improve them by putting my best attitude towards my job and studies. I believe that by doing so, I am living life to the fullest. My goal is to become the best software engineer that my abilities will allow me to be, therefore, I have an ongoing competition with myself to always be better than I was yesterday. Currently, I am searching for a project that will allow me to learn part-time while I continue my college studies in Software Engineering. This would involve working approximately 3-4 hours per day.
My ultimate goal as a software developer is to create a project that will improve people’s quality of life, with a specific focus on promoting better mental health, helping individuals to accept and understand themselves.

Tourist Guide and Translator
Brandsport and ECOTAM
Although this experience may not be technology-related, it has been a highly beneficial aspect in the development of my soft skills. During these months, I had the opportunity to work with large groups of people from all around the world. During the first few months, I was working in Mexico where I had to assist clients with solving their problems while they were visiting the country in a horse trip where we would ride and visit cities. Additionally, I helped them communicate with locals by translating. Then, in May, I went to Belgium to work at Brandsport as a guide/instructor where I interacted with around 100 different clients every day. During this time, I was able to speak in English, Spanish, and French
