albert oliva
Developer, designer and eternal tinkerer. enkilabs is my space to build my own projects with total freedom: from infrastructure for Ruby developers to platforms that help people share rides or swap things. If one of them catches your eye, give it a try — and if you have feedback, I'd love to hear it.
