My Story
I'm a passionate full-stack developer with over 15 years of experience, specialising in NodeJS, ReactJS, Vue, AWS, Lambda Functions, PHP, Laravel, JavaScript, and Python. Based in the United Kingdom, I hold a BSc in Computer Science (2:1) from the University of Wales and an MSc in Advanced Computing (Merit) from Manchester Metropolitan University.
Throughout my career, I've worked with diverse teams across various industries, leading development teams and architecting scalable systems. I'm fluent in both English and Portuguese, enabling effective collaboration with international teams.
When I'm not coding, you'll find me playing the piano, enjoying music, or travelling. I also contribute to open-source projects and write technical blog posts.
