About me
I am Maki Villano and I tinker with all sorts of things.
My background is in electronics engineering but I found myself spending the past fifteen years in software development, taking on various roles from R&D to consulting to management. I spent my first decade working for companies such as HP, Misys, Oracle, and Gameloft followed by several years of trying to launch a few tech startups. Currrently, I am an independent technology consultant.
Outside of consulting, I continue to tinker, learn, create, teach, and play. I presently reside in the wonderful islands of Philippines with my amazing son Io.
About this site
Like any other personal web site, this one is about my thoughts, preoccupations, and curiosities. A place where I share my personal projects – this web site being one of them. That said, this site is a work in progress.
I will do my best to properly attribute content that are not mine but in case you notice a miss on my end, please let me know. As for everything else, I claim ownership under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License.
I built this site with Material Design Lite components. I also used the beautiful typefaces Montserrat by Julieta Ulanovsky and Muli by Vernon Adams. Additional icons were borrowed from the Material Design Icons community.
