About Me
I began programming as a self-taught endeavor in 2020, and became so passionate about it that I switched to a software development career, after having dedicated 11 years of my life to Medicine.
Today, as a full-stack developer, I think outside of the box and have a unique perspective thanks to my background. I’m happiest working in challenging and evolving environments, on projects that improve the user experience and that have a meaningful impact on our world.
