I’m a Senior Frontend Engineer with 6+ years of experience, specializing in product-focused development within the JavaScript ecosystem. Over the last four years, I’ve focused on building scalable, high-impact web applications, primarily using React, Next.js, and TypeScript.

I care deeply about building software that delivers real business and user value. I’ve planned and delivered frontend solutions that directly contributed to over R$2,000,000 in sales, and built internal tools that reduced operational workflows from days to hours while significantly decreasing error rates.

Recently, my work has been focused on Web3 products, with an emphasis on simplifying complex blockchain concepts into accessible user experiences. I’ve built full-stack solutions end to end — from smart contracts using Solidity and Foundry, to production web applications using React, Next.js, GraphQL, and Node.js.

I enjoy working closely with product and design teams, taking ownership of solutions, and balancing UX, performance, and technical constraints to ship maintainable, scalable products.
