Rubyist and humanist
Adsidera, aka Anna Costalonga, Berlin and Leipzig, Germany
I am a Ruby on Rails developer, with experience coordinating small dev teams with agile methodologies. I welcome challenges, be they creating apps from scratch or maintaining and enhancing with Ruby/Ruby on Rails complex and articulated modern apps
I have a daily familiarity with SQL and MongoDB databases
Git and RSpec are my bread and butter, a test-first, TDD approach is not unusual for me
I am a lady developer, so I do not like mice I prefer using VIM & TMUX over fancy IDEs
HTML, HAML, CSS, SASS, Bootstrap, Javascript: my fundamentals
Author and translator from German, English and French into Italian, I enjoy naturally technical writing and reorganizing pre-existent but unconsistent code documentations
Agile worker in an agile team, with flat hierarchies, I like to proactively contribute with my ideas and different experiences from different sectors in different countries
I am a gentle feminist, co-founder of the italogerman womens'blog Le Donne Visibili,
I am a volunteer ambassador for the Bitnation project in Berlin, a proud member of Rubymonstas Berlin and volunteer developer to the Diversity Ticket action, supported by Travis CI
I am an enthusiastic tech-lady and am naturally inclined to positive and vibrant communication, to public speaking and promoting ideas and projects I believe in.
I like to be goodhumoured, polite, generous and positive with colleagues, resilient and perfectionist
