About
A deeply passionate full stack and app developer with whom learning never stops. I have experience in a wide range of technologies and frameworks, and I am always looking for new opportunities to learn and grow. I also have experience with cloud services and deployment. When not coding, I enjoy playing video games, reading books, hiking, snowboarding and spending time with my wife and dog.
