What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow my skills in web development and contribute to innovative projects in a collaborative environment.

I am a dedicated frontend developer currently leading the development of web applications at ESPOL. My expertise lies in utilizing React to create user-friendly interfaces, ensuring a seamless experience for users. I take pride in my ability to design responsive layouts and integrate them effectively with backend services.

My journey in web development began with an internship at SOLINAL, where I honed my skills in user interface design and backend integration. I also served as a teaching assistant, sharing my knowledge of programming fundamentals and Python with fellow students. My academic background in Computer Science from ESPOL has equipped me with a solid understanding of various programming languages and technologies.

In addition to my technical skills, I have a passion for continuous learning and improvement. I strive to stay updated with the latest trends in web development and am eager to contribute to innovative projects that challenge my abilities.
