Bio

A seasoned software developer, I specialize in creating innovative and efficient solutions with a strong foundation in PHP, particularly within the Laravel framework. My career commenced with the development of websites for small clients and has progressively advanced to a Tech Lead position. This journey has encompassed a spectrum of experiences—from small software houses to prominent industry challenges—providing a comprehensive perspective on software development.

My expertise lies in crafting robust and scalable applications that align with dynamic client requirements. This has been bolstered by direct client interactions during my tenure in software houses, honed exceptional communication skills, and a comprehensive understanding of market dynamics. My professional path has involved significant contributions to the pet industry through the development of an animal health insurance application and immersive roles in large marketplaces, where I tackled intricate scalability and user experience concerns.

Adept at rapid learning and effective time management, I embrace new technologies and lead teams towards successful project execution. My dedication to collaboration and teamwork has naturally transitioned me into the role of Tech Lead. In this capacity, orchestrating complex solutions serves as my principal driving force, fostering an inclusive and productive environment where innovation flourishes and objectives are met.
