My name is Ricardo Sampayo, I was born in Caracas, Venezuela in May 9th 1988. Since I can remember I have had a great inclination towards electronics and new technologies which later led me to choose my career .

After finishing my primary education , and still with a great passion for technology , I was admitted by Universidad Católica Andrés Bello, one of the best universities in the country to study Computer Engineering. Throughout the career I acquired a comprehensive training fundamentals of computer software , hardware and even project management.

My thirst for knowledge has allowed me to learn so many mobile technologies such as web , which made me notice the gaps that exist for learning new languages ​​in my native language , leading , in 2013, a group of college buddies and me to form a virtual school for the development of software in Spanish, which we call CodeHero.co. This school currently has a large number of daily visitors and projecting significant growth.

My first steps as a professional were developing mobile applications for iOS operating systems on one of the first and best iOS development companies in Venezuela: CodeFuel.

In my free time when I’m not researching or developing new software, I like to discover new music, traveling and seeing new places, diving, or just be a spectator of a good soccer game.
