About Me
My name is Giuseppe Di Grande, I was born in 1973. I live in Avola (Siracusa) and I have a diploma in social sciences. I have more than thirty years of experience with computer science and software development.
In 1985 I started using my first home computer. In the early nineties I worked as an advertising graphic designer in a private television in Siracusa. In 1995 I lost my sight. I have been a vegan since 2013, and today I wonder why it hasn't been before.
Programming is the main tool to express my creativity, but it's not the only way I like to do it. I don't like being confined to a predefined role. I like challenges, the bigger they are, the more I try. My knowledge and skills are multidimensional.
To have me as a consultant and collaborator to grow your idea or develop your project you can Write me from here.
IT Skills
Today there are too many technologies to be globally competent. This is not a problem, learning new ones is not an obstacle. Having a low-level training, I love the depths of the OS and hardware more, but I also manage with the technologies that are abstracted from the machine. Here I list part of the computer skills.

Hardware and Programming Languages
I have known and used various hardware and programming languages. I have used other languages less deeply. I also created a programming language functional to graphic design.
