About Me
Hi!
I am a software engineer and a full stack developer with 18 years of professional experience in creating web-oriented software.
My love for computers started very early and I created my first lines of code more than 33 years ago.
I worked on several projects from simple websites to complex systems that integrated several micro systems.
My experience is mainly focused on high risk payment systems where I have accounted more than 6 years in this area and tourism solutions where I spent 7 years of my career.
