About me

Software Developer and Computer Engineering student on a full scholarship. While my corporate journey is just beginning, my discipline is not: I maintain the consistent high performance my scholarship demands, balancing rigorous academics with my administrative duties as part of my active university social service, and continuous learning. Holding over 120 certifications (Platzi) across Engineering, Data, AI, and Finance, I am an execution-driven professional, accustomed to responsibility, self-management, and translating complex challenges into real technological solutions.
