About

I’m a developer driven by curiosity about how things really work — from the low-level details all the way up to the high-level design. I love digging deep to understand a system inside and out, then using that knowledge to build great things for great people.

Currently, I’m a Software Developer at Cornelder de Moçambique, focused on mobile development with native technologies, building fast, reliable apps that feel right at home on every device.

In the past, I worked mainly as a full-stack developer for both established companies and startups, taking features from the database all the way to the interface.

Outside of work, I spend my free time with my family and playing my beloved video games.
