I have developed websites and applications since 2007, both as a freelancer and working full time in media companies and startups.
I enjoy the most working on front end technologies like AngularJS and jQuery, but also know my way through PHP and Ruby on Rails.
From 2009 to 2013 I volunteered for AIESEC, where I held responsibilities on sales and finance, and had the opportunity to deliver conferences and trainings for hundreds of people in more than 10 countries.
In 2013 I moved to Denmark, and since then I've worked as a developer in large and small Danish companies, focusing on front end work.
I'm an avid traveller, photographer and I'm told I'm a really good cook -you should try my Mexican specialities ;)
