Hi, I'm Zapata

Technical Writer | Researcher | Board Games Fan

I'm José Luis Zapata (but my friends just call me "Zapata"), a tech writer born and raised in Mexico and living in Germany.

I currently work for Google Germany, write about my (mis)adventures as a tech writer at BufferBuffer, maintain technicalwriting.link, and talk about board games with my wife on La Matatena.
