## About

```text
At GTISI – Universidad Tecnológica de Pereira, I developed three institutional modules for student enrollment, contracting, and financial management. Implemented with Angular from prototype to deployment, they’re actively used by administrative users.

I also led UX/UI design for institutional applications, turning functional requirements into operational interfaces. I collaborated with academic and administrative teams to align the solutions with the institution’s processes.

As Co-Fundador & CTO at Nexify S.A.S., I led the technology architecture for a web real-estate platform with more than 30 listed properties. I coordinated the development team and managed the product cycle from requirements through deployment.

In my projects, I built PaintTrack, a production formula-management platform with 12 active formulas, and designed, developed, and deployed Pitchme, a bilingual AI-powered CV analyzer. I also developed web projects using React, TypeScript, NestJS, and Python.
