What I'm looking for

I seek impactful full-stack or mobile roles where I can lead development of user-focused products, work cross-functionally, and grow into technical leadership while solving complex backend and integration challenges.

I am a self-taught full-stack developer driven by curiosity and a passion for building seamless user experiences and efficient backend solutions. My work balances responsive design, accessibility, and pragmatic engineering to deliver polished products.

At Media Revolution I delivered end-to-end web and mobile solutions, led a React Native App Store deployment, and optimized crypto-focused web apps using React and Vite. I collaborated closely with designers to integrate UX into features and maintained a multipurpose Node.js/TypeORM backend.

Currently, as a Lead React Native Developer at Grupo Read, I drive mobile innovation for the Vital healthcare platform, building scalable APIs and backend services to support virtual appointment scheduling across multiple medical disciplines and implementing integrated pharmacy and insurance capabilities.

With a Bachelor's in Civil Engineering and a strong suite of online coursework in modern web and mobile technologies, I bring practical full-stack experience, a problem-solving mindset, and a commitment to producing reliable, user-centered software.
