Hello, and welcome to the Box Developer Community, I’m Rui Barbosa, a developer advocate at Box.
Thought out the times I’ve been a developer, trainer, tech lead, solutions engineer, but found my real passion as a developer advocate, since I both love to code and help people.
We are here to help you with whatever you’re trying to accomplish with the Box Platform.
If you want to get to know me a bit better, follow me on LinkedIn and Medium.
Outside of work I like to dive and travel (let me know about your favorite diving sites).
Here we are the day I picked it up in 2003! I’ve gained a few pounds since then, and my hair/beard are a LOT longer! Just had my “spring service” and am ready for another season on the road!
My first bike was an old Honda that I recovered from scrap and got it running with a new stator and by replacing some seals. Yes, I had extra parts left over, but we rode it all over before donating it to one of my younger brothers. Shortly afterward I got my first H-D and never looked back! I do love the BMW style and boxer engine. Almost acquired an R1200C back “in the day”. If I could get a “new” bike right now it would be a Honda Valkyrie. I have a thing for motorcycles/cars no longer in production.
Yeah, that’s me 20 years ago, with those stupid “cut offs” and my $600 Oakley prescription shades, which later flew off while traveling on the interstate, and were promptly crushed by an Old Dominion freighter. Luckily I had my regular glasses, and I did a lot of squinting for the rest of the trip.
