}> Bio
Full Stack Developer with 3-5 years of experience building end-to-end solutions. Currently at RHI Magnesita, working across the entire stack—from frontend interfaces to backend systems and cloud infrastructure.
I hold a BSc in Computer Science from PUC Minas, with postgraduate studies in Information Security (UTFPR) and Digital Forensics (IPOG). My work spans OutSystems, JavaScript, C#, Python, and modern DevOps practices.
Beyond code, I'm also a (sworn translator) for Portuguese and English, a side of my varied interests that keeps me connected to language and communication.
When not coding, you'll find me reading (280+ books and counting), researching, or exploring whatever topic catches my curiosity.
