About me

Building digital products
with attention to detail

I'm a frontend developer with over 7 years of experience building web applications. I specialize in React and its ecosystem, with a focus on scalable architecture and developer experience.

I've led teams of up to 5 developers, defining frontend architectures from scratch, creating shared component libraries and establishing testing and CI/CD best practices.

Currently working as a frontend consultant for Banco Santander Uruguay, where I develop and maintain a scalable monorepo with Turborepo, mentoring the team on React and TypeScript best practices.
