About me

Passionate full-stack developer with a knack for crafting pixel-perfect user experiences. Self-taught coder who started out designing websites for fun and fell in love with bringing ideas to life on the web.

Years of freelancing and project management have honed my skills in client relationships - from presenting concepts, negotiating timelines to delivering products that exceed expectations. Juggling multiple projects has made me an expert at prioritizing tasks and optimizing workflows.

I write semantic, accessible and lightning-fast code by hand to achieve the best results and seamless integration. An advocate of web standards, my work strictly follows modern W3C guidelines.

My journey began with a fascination for web design that evolved into a passion for frontend development. I create magic with HTML, CSS and JavaScript. These days I build slick interactive apps with Vue.js and Node.js.

Serverless architectures enable me to rapidly build and deploy apps that scale infinitely. I'm a huge fan of leveraging AWS services to create robust cloud-based solutions.

Currently leading development of a multi-region event management system at Condé Nast Italia. The backend uses NestJS and MongoDB to power a federated GraphQL API.

Let's grab coffee and talk shop! I love collaborating with creative problem-solvers.
