📖 About Me

I'm a Full-Stack Developer from [Medellín/Colombia] with a decade of experience as an ESL educator. This unique combination gives me a deep understanding of how language institutions operate – which is why I'm building a multi-tenant SaaS platform specifically for them.

Technologies I use React, TypeScript, Node.js, Jest, and Git.

I believe the best educational software is built by people who understand both code and classrooms."

Outside of coding, I love [Playing soccer, drawing and chilling out with friends and family].
