About Me

I'm 28 years old, living in Vila Nova de Famalicão (Portugal). I have a master degree in Electrical Engineering, Robotics and Automation but my passion for Software lead me to get a post graduation degree, this time in Software Engineering. At this moment I'm working as a Software Engineer at Curve, a London based fintech that wants to revolutionize the payment industry.
In my free time, I like to read tech blogs and experiment new technological things. Additionally, I like to attend the cinema and, you can, most of the times, find me playing sports like running, swimming and biking. I love to travel and experiment other cultures and know about the history of every place I visit.
I have an extreme passion for technology and I value knowledge above all.
