Personal Profile

I'm a passionate software engineer with close to 17 years of experience.

I started my carrer as a backend developer, mostly using Microsoft based technologies. Later, when the mobile revolution happened, I started to get curious about mobile and frontend based applications, and that's how I moved to javascript based technologies.

I consider myself a full stack engineer. I can work on any of the major facets of a modern project: backend, frontend, architecture design, testing and even DevOps, which is not my main strenght, but I can definitely research and resolve.
