Kyle Edward Donaldson

I'm 26 years old from Newcastle, England. Currently based in San Pedro Cholula, Mexico.

I'm a highly motivated, ambitious and inspiration-prone person, always eager to be creative and build things. I've been living the dream as a software engineer for 9 years, 2 months, 2 weeks and 1 day

In my spare time I like to code personal projects, read (sci-fi, philosophy, history, tech), play fantasy football, hang out with my wife and daughter.

More recently, I've been trying to get fitter and improve my health by running.
