About me 🏳️‍⚧️

Enthusiastic front-end developer with 10 years of experience in building and maintaining modern and user-focused interfaces.

"Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works." - Steve Jobs

I had many opportunities in my previous jobs to develop strong UI / UX design skills and I also participated in large projects such as HP Life and Nike ecommerce Brazil.

I'm always trying to grow and learn something new. I lose track of time when I'm playing the violin, studying languages or simply reading a good book.
