hey, i'm Lucas
··· heartbeats old.
started playing around with colored letters (a.k.a. programming) when i was 12. wanted a minecraft server for me and my friends, tried 5 times, only the last one got 100 players (not bad for a 12 year old).
at 15 i founded the biggest fivem pvp server in latin america. it got acquired by the biggest roleplay server out there and i became their tech lead. then i went to the industry to work for big grown-ass companies.
working at 
coinbase, attending engineering at 
pucrs, and mostly obsessing over the parts of a product nobody notices until they break. i like small teams that ship fast, and software that stays clear as it grows.
if you squint, my job is making computers do what i meant instead of what i typed.
the yes and no list
- traveling (even though i hate flying)
- driving
- people who say 'i don't know'
- cats
- coke zero, ice cold
- flying
- traffic
- people with nothing to say
- the heat
- arrogance

i'm not a pretty hobby guy, and i'm trying to fix that. turns out balancing a full-time senior engineer job at a big company with an engineering degree isn't as easy as it sounds. anyway, here's what i do with the little time left.
i like to keep an eye on politics and the economy, and i'm a little obsessed with personal finances. i love to travel, even though i'm afraid of flying, and i know how the horse moves in chess. that's about it.
