Nicolas Mesa's Personal Site

I successfully created and deployed a dashboard to help managers get an insight on how customers behave. I used different technologies to develop this dashboard including Java, DynamoDB, SQS, HTML, CSS and Javascript.

I have participated in the development some applications such as Seguridad en línea which is an application that is being used by the governments of Medellín and Bogotá (the two most important cities in Colombia). The purpose of this application is to make these cities safer by allowing its users to report crime anonymously. I feel extremely proud of working in this project because I feel that I'm contributing in making this country safer.

I was also the lead developer of Alegra which is a book keeping application for small and medium size companies that is delivered through the Software as a Service (SaaS) model. This model makes the application much more affordable than licensed software which is exactly what a small company needs.

Working in these projects, I gained great experience in programming in back end and front end environments. I also acquired others skills such as Linux production server configuration, database design and mobile development using HTML5 technologies

During this period, I worked with alumni from different grades, supporting them through their high school math courses

I worked during this period, teaching people of any age and skill set, including high performance water skier, to water ski. In this job, I developed important skills such as tolerance, patience, punctuality, discipline and leadership.
