About me

I am a passionate and dedicated Software Engineering student at Universidad APEC, actively building my foundation in technology and design.

After completing the renowned Harvard CS50 courses (CS50X, CS50P, and CS50W), I developed practical skills in Python, Django, SQL, Flask, JavaScript, and React. These courses deepened my understanding of both back-end and front-end technologies, preparing me to become a versatile Software Engineer.

With a focus on clean and intuitive design, I bring a unique approach to software development: it is not only about writing code, but about crafting visually engaging and easy-to-use interfaces that improve user experience. Combining technical skills with a designer mindset helps me build interfaces that look great and perform consistently.
