Ernesto Ojeda

Steven Rivera

Like the Nike slogan, I "just do it!" and accomplish everything I put my mind to. My passions are living life and software development.

Computers and the internet have always fascinated me. At age 12 I was already a web developer, writing software programs to run on the internet.

At 17 I joined the US Army as a unilingual Spanish speaker, went to boot camp with no prior English knowledge, and eventually earned my certifications—in English—as an IT security expert.

I have been the Network Administrator and Information Technology Specialist for three military bases (concurrently). I also helped to re-establish military and non-military communications in Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria.

Investor, founder of homebase.
