About
I'm a full-stack software developer with a passion for technology and solving real-world problems through software. I have experience building web applications, integrating systems, and managing modern infrastructure with Kubernetes and Docker, working across PHP, JavaScript, Python, Django, Wagtail (powering this website), Laravel, Vue.js, and SQL databases.
I'm known for picking up new technologies quickly, adapting to new challenges, and shipping reliable, scalable solutions that meet both user and business needs.
Outside of work, I compete in electric vehicle rally championships as part of the CPNE (Campeonato de Portugal de Novas Energias), racing since 2025.
