About
In 1987, I left school with nothing and embarked on my journey in software development. Fast forward 36 years, I've excelled in this profession and continue discovering new adventures.
From coding video games and desktop software in the 80s and 90s, and then transitioning through the onset of the internet era, I continue to thrive and adapt with each silicon age.
My primary expertise lies in crafting intricate web applications that encompass the entire spectrum, ensuring usability for a global audience from data sourcing to implementation.
Beyond the screen, I enjoy cooking middle eastern food for friends and family, running a weekly pub quiz here in Porto, exploring the waters through kayaking, hiking the picturesque landscapes of Portugal, or just throwing a towel down on the beach and relishing moments with friends.
