    Bio

    I’m a Full Stack Developer with experience in both frontend and backend, working comfortably across multiple languages such as Python, C#, JavaScript, Node.js, R, and Proton. I also have solid experience with both relational and non-relational databases, including MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server, and MongoDB.

    I consider myself highly collaborative and someone who enjoys bringing ideas to the table that might sound a little crazy at first, but often end up making a real impact when solving problems. I particularly enjoy those moments when a complex challenge turns into an opportunity to design practical and effective solutions.

    I’m always open to learning new technologies, staying up to date, and experimenting with different approaches. I believe the best way to grow in this field is to never stop being curious—and if along the way I can add a fresh perspective or an unexpected solution, even better.

    Interests

    photography, Leadership, Full stack development, Innovative projects, Problem solving and challenges, C#, JavaScript

    WordPress Origin Story

    My journey with WordPress began in 2024 when I had the opportunity to volunteer at Campus Connect San Jose 2024 held at Universidad Fidelitas. I joined alongside several classmates and it quickly became a meaningful experience as it was my first time participating in a large scale event. During the event I contributed mainly in photography which allowed me to capture important moments while also connecting with both internal and external attendees. This experience opened the door for me to see WordPress not only as a platform but as a community where I could meet people learn and grow.

    In 2025 I continued my involvement by volunteering again at Campus Connect at Universidad Fidelitas where I focused on photography and also had the chance to be part of the WordPress Women event. Being part of these initiatives has been very important to me both personally and professionally. As someone who is naturally introverted these experiences helped me step outside my comfort zone interact with new people and build confidence. I truly value what I have achieved so far and I look forward to continuing to grow within the WordPress community.
