Oracle Groundbreaker Ambassador and Java Champion Ix-Chel Ruiz understands toys, enjoys puzzles, and focuses on the work. By Bob Rhubart August 8, 2019 It may have been inevitable that Ix-Chel Ruiz would become a coder. “My father was a computer engineer,” says Ruiz, “so I grew up surrounded by equipment.” That equipment included a Commodore 64 with a tape drive, the computer on which Ruiz, then 11 years old, wrote her first code. “It was kind of a toy for me.” That “toy” would...
