About me

From art to code, without losing simplicity.

I'm Diego. Seven years building software: products, infrastructure, AI systems. I studied computer science, then fine arts. Both live in everything I build.

Today I work freelance under Komorebi Studio. Complex projects, made simple.

The story

Where I come from.

The beginning: learning by building

It started during my studies, with a personalized nutrition app. Not a class project: a real product. UX, a Python/Django backend, native mobile, store releases. That's where I learned to carry a product end-to-end and answer for every piece.

What I learned: own the whole stack, build things people actually use.

Systems that must always work

I've built infrastructure for products millions of people use every day: live sports data during matches, IoT platforms for corporate fleets, business intelligence for multinationals. Systems nobody notices, until they stop. My job is making sure they don't.

Impact: systems that hold up when it counts and help people make better decisions.

AI applied to real problems

In recent years I've put AI where the work piles up: digital triage in the ER, 600,000 medical reports analyzed automatically, B2B lead generation, nutrition assistants. The impact is measured in hours saved, and in people getting back to the work that matters.

What matters: AI takes the routine. People keep the decisions.

Path

One path, in chapters.

High school

The basics: computer science

I attend a technical institute specializing in computer science: this is where I build the technical foundations on which everything else will rest, from the first programs to the most complex projects.

Academy of Fine Arts

New Media and thesis on AI applied to art

At the Academy of Fine Arts, Media Art department, I work on a thesis combining neural networks and analysis of the aesthetics of artistic styles. I understand that AI can be a powerful creative tool, not just an academic topic.

Years in consulting

Consulting and projects in different sectors

Software engineer in consulting: I cut my teeth jumping between sectors. I pay my dues, from intern to leading one or two people, always in direct contact with clients and teams.

2024

Reset, Travels, and New Perspectives

I take a break from work. I travel, spend time with the people I love, do the things I enjoy. That's when I decide to go solo: work my own way, keep studying, build products with a vision of my own.

From 2025

Komorebi Studio

I go freelance as Komorebi Studio. Light filtering through leaves: simplicity in complex projects. I build my own products, like tradepick.ai, and work with clients who want that same quality.

Off the clock

Who I am outside of work.

You'll find me planning the next trip to Japan, exploring new places, or deep in a book, an anime, a manga. Komorebi, sunlight filtering through leaves, is a word I have tattooed (much to my mother's dismay, and it's not the only one). It reminds me to look for simplicity in everything.

I believe in balance. Work matters, but it isn't everything. Breaks recharge me, travel gives me perspective, and time off makes me write better code.

Let's write the next chapter.

Tell me what you want to build.
