Community

ReactJS Colombia.

Since 2017, I’ve helped create free events, practical learning opportunities, and a more connected local React ecosystem.

Building a community where engineers can learn and share.

ReactJS Colombia brings developers together through meetups, workshops, mentorship, and speaker support. My work spans event planning, talk curation, logistics, and helping first-time speakers feel ready to contribute.

  • Dozens of events since 2017
  • 100+ participants at peak sessions
  • Community talks, workshops, and mentorship across experience levels

Speaking history

The talks, in one timeline.

Every session I can recover so far, combining public event records with clearly labeled private and reconstructed talks from earlier in my career.

Topics

What I speak about.

Each topic draws on real project experience — architecture choices made under constraint, delivery problems solved in production, and team dynamics at different scales.

Engineering leadership for teams that still ship

How standards, automation, and delivery systems reduce pressure and help teams make better decisions sooner.

Developer experience that compounds

Practical ways to improve tooling, feedback loops, and everyday developer ergonomics without overengineering the process.

Frontend architecture for real teams

Patterns for growing React and TypeScript codebases without turning them into a maze of exceptions and accidental complexity.

Quality systems that fit the workflow

Testing, linting, and CI/CD systems that teams actually keep because they improve confidence instead of slowing work down.

Full-stack delivery with technical range

Choosing the right level of abstraction across frontend, backend, and platform work when products need to move fast.

Community building and first-time speakers

What community work has taught me about mentoring, accessibility, and helping more people feel ready to share what they know.

Formats

Available formats.

Different formats fit different goals. Pick the one that matches your audience and the outcome you want from the session.

Practical sessions for local communities and engineering groups that want useful takeaways, not slideware.

Hands-on sessions around React, TypeScript, testing, tooling, and workflow design for teams that want to level up together.

Architecture, DX, and delivery talks tailored for product teams, onboarding programs, or internal engineering initiatives.

Good fit for panels, AMAs, and conversations about technical leadership, full-stack execution, and developer culture.

Booking

Bring the audience. I’ll shape the session.

Share a little context and I can suggest the right shape for the session. WhatsApp is fastest for a short introduction; LinkedIn works well for a fuller brief.

Meetups, internal engineering talks, workshops, and leadership roundtables.

Audience size, format, date range, and the outcome you want the session to create.

Every session is shaped around the audience, constraints, and outcome—not pulled from a generic deck.

Include the event, audience, date range, preferred format, and the outcome you want attendees to leave with.
