Bio
Emilio Nicoli
One does not always have the absolute pleasure of working with a complete genius that is both smart and fun to be around. João is the latter and more. I consider myself lucky for having worked with him since he is a little picky about what he devotes his time to. The project certainly has to be interesting and mind-bending. Joao and I worked for a number of years on a distributed botnet as "bot-farmers" that mined and published data to a number of cool companies. In fact, his effort is currently influencing the Google Maps routing algorithm. João, is just super smart and I can put together a list of things that I have learned from him. Joao, I am grateful to call you my colleague and and fellow technical conspirator. You are awesome!

I've been working with Joao at Elgin for a number of years and really enjoyed working with him. He is methodical and always willing to impart with a bit of knowledge sharing. Plus, he's a bit of a comedian as well; it never hurts when trying to solve some deep coding problems. What a great guy!
