ABOUT ME
MY STORY
My name is Cesar Pena; I’m a Software Engineer (MSc IT) based in New York City. I’m very passionate about technology, fitness, entrepreneurship, and finance, and I have formed my background around these four topics, which means I love what I do! When I’m not having fun on the computer, you can find me at the gym, roaming the city on my motorcycle, reading, studying, or hanging out with my dog.
