With a background in mobile development in Java and Kotlin, as a former tech lead, I've been dedicated to delivering exceptional user experiences and providing technical leadership for project success.
I'm currently working at ArkusNexus. I'm a Front End Developer working with React, TypeScript, and Next.js.
I have a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from the Universidad Tecnológica de Tijuana UTT
I like coffee, video games, and coding. I'm a big fan of learning new things and I'm always looking for new opportunities to grow.
I like challenges and I'm always looking for ways to improve my skills and knowledge. And also improve the things that I'm part of

Mainly my entire career has been with an outsourcing company, so I have been working in a lot of projects with different technologies and different teams. and for different clients, so I have been able to learn a lot of things in a short period of time.
My main role here was a front end developer, working with React, Next.js, and TypeScript. I was also involved in the development/maintenance of the CLI.
The primary focus of this company was buying and selling airplane parts, necessitating the development of a dedicated system. This marked my introduction to web development. I applied various framework technologies to complete this project and gained valuable insights into the industry.
This was a very interesting project; it involved creating an operating system tailored for older users. All basic applications such as camera, phone, contacts, messages, etc., were customized and optimized with larger UI elements for easier use by older individuals. Here, I learned how base operating systems function and how to access various device data.
A startup focused on developing mobile applications for large corporations. Here, I gained extensive knowledge in mobile development and learned about device capabilities, utilizing them to enhance user experience.
This was my introduction to the company and the technologies I would be using. I had mentors who taught me how to use the technologies and best practices. We formed teams to simulate real-world scenarios and worked on projects evaluated by mentors.
Here are some of my personal projects I've worked on recently.
My girlfriend and I made a memory game together. My girlfriend is a psychologist and worked with kids with specials needs, the game was designed to help them improve their memory and also do more activities with at the same time. From the tecnical standpoint it's a simple game made with React and Typescript. is as simpler as it can because it was designed to be used by kids

This game has a similar history as the previous one, but for some reason kid prefer this one it also involves memory but at the difference of the previous one, this one is about making pairs it's also made with React and Typescript, but it's a little more complex than the previous one.
