Back in 2016, I took a leap of faith and switchedcareers from being a telecom technician to diving deep into the world of web development. The initial spark? My passion for coding was ignited by dreams of game development. While the game development scene in Portugal didn't offer many opportunities, my previous portfolio took on a fun twist — it was designed as a game! and led me to the vast and ever-evolving landscape of web development, and I haven't looked back since.

When I'm not knee-deep into work, you'll find me experimenting with new tech, continuing my foray into game dev, or taking a complete digital detox. Away from the screen, I embrace the digital nomad lifestyle, often with a backpack on and a new destination in mind. If I'm not exploring a new city or hidden gem in nature, you might catch me riding the waves, surfing to the rhythm of the ocean, or expressing myself through the beats of my drums and the strum of my guitar.

Whether it's the virtual realm of development or the tangible beats of music and the thrill of travel, I'm always on the hunt for the next adventure!
