Gonzalo has always been hardworking and gritty, following whatever he is working on really through and taking responsibility for his work. He also is great to have around.

Lionel Savidan

Gonzalo has been an amazing mentor at Ubiqum. He is super patient and explains things clearly, switching from English to Spanish with no problem. He has great technical skills in Java, JavaScript, React, Vue and more, I learnt great tips from him. Another important skill when you are a mentor is to be organised and Gonzalo was great for that. I totally recommend Gonzalo to any organisation.
