ABOUT ME

For the past eight years I was an academic, conducting research in universities in Portugal, the Netherlands and the UK. Last year, I have decided to pursue a career in tech.

These days, I am a full-stack web developer with attention to detail. I create web applications using JavaScript (with React) and PHP (with Laravel), but I am constantly reading about new languages and frameworks. I am currently looking for a junior position as a full-stack developer that will allow me to learn new skills in a professional setting.

When not coding, you might find me surrounded by music — crafting playlists, digging for vinyl, and standing in front of you at a concert — or by pictures of cute animals.
