I'm a marketing guy turned developer. I've dropped out of my computer science degree 9 years ago and went on a path that ultimately led to specializing in marketing.

When my passion for programming reignited, I converted myself into a software developer — with special marketing skills that generate traction for startups.

I've been a software engineer since 2005. From a freelancer web designer in Brazil to Lead UX Engineer in Silicon Valley, I've faced all sorts of challenges and have dealt with tons of programming languages and startup needs.

Today I'm using this experience to design reusable architectures that boost productivity and reduce our startups' time to market.

Designer and entrepreneur. I love to transform big dreams into small achievable parts. Have mentored hundreds of entrepreneurs in the initial stage who look for more autonomy and meaningful, authentic lives. For the last 16 years, I dived into design and technology, free learning, sharing economy and the art of start.
