More about me
I am a frontend developer for two years now after a late career change at 37 years old. I quit my last job in digital marketing to study software development full-time. After eight months studying, on my own, through free, online resources only, I got a job at a fintech startup.
Here is my blog with more details about my decision to become a software developer and how I learned to code: <a href="
I am from Brazil, by the way. Currently, I live in São Paulo, but I am moving to Los Angeles in May, following my wife that was accepted at a Masters program in USC - I will apply to the J2 visa, allowing me to have a work permit.
I receive consistently positive feedback about my communication skills, which I believe I can maintain in English, even it being my second language.
Here is a newsletter I started with written communication tips in English that can serve as evidence of this statement: <a href="
I also have a side-project that can serve as evidence that I can get things done on limited time, as well as demonstrate my UX/UI and product skills. It is a SaaS web app for 1:1 meeting management, built in Rails API + Ember.
