About Me

Crafting digital experiences with passion, precision, and purpose

👋Hello, I'm the Y4NN

I could introduce myself as a <<full-stack>> software developer but for you to understand better who I am, I will simply say a Backend Developer/Lover that knows some frontend, DevOps and Security). I'm also an AI hobbyist, Web3 & Game Enthusiast. I have 2+ years of experience in actively exploring modern software engineering and building products that people love.

I specialize in building and maintaining software applications that are secure, scalable and performant regardless the tools and constraints around projects

Beyond work, I do AI research , learn competitive programming with maths and game dev, build a local open source community, mentor aspiring developers, create educational experiences and playing soccer :)
