🇲🇹 Malta

I'm a 🇧🇷 Brazilian Software Engineer currently based in Malta. I specialize in PHP, Laravel, Vue JS, and TypeScript, and I'm passionate about building beautiful, functional web experiences.

About Me

About Me

My toolkit revolves around the Laravel and Vue JS ecosystem. I enjoy crafting everything from robust APIs and full-stack applications to open-source tools like the Mary UI Laravel Starter Kit and Bloomfolio, an Astro portfolio template that’s been forked dozens of times.

When I’m not coding, I’m probably exploring AI art, traveling, or listening to 🎸 heavy music way too loud.

I've worked on a variety of projects, from simple websites to complex web applications. Here are a few of my favorites.
