Profile

I’m a web developer with a background in game development, studying Digital Design & Development (Devine) at Howest. I build interfaces that feel sharp, fast and clear.

I’m Angolan and Portuguese, and that mix shows up in how I think about products: practical, direct, but still open to experimentation when it actually improves the experience.

I like working close to the front end: design tokens, responsive layouts, and interactions that feel intentional instead of noisy.
