I’ve been programing since I was a little kid; my professional career started with doing contract web development work while I was in college. In 2011 I was working on a project that really needed node.js. But as all developers working on that project were using windows we were unable to use it, so I started porting it to windows as a side project. Soon after I was hired by Rackspace to dedicate all my time to node.js and finish the job. That was how I became one of the first node core contributors. Nowadays I am working at Cloud9 IDE in Amsterdam, who generously let me work on making node more awesome.
