My path through the industry has been... eclectic. I've shipped 9+ titles for Facebook Instant Games and LINE, built mobile games, and crafted hundreds of casino and gambling games. That taught me a thing or two about keeping people engaged. And working so long with games really teaches you a lot about performance optimization.

These days, PixiJS and TypeScript are my tools of choice. I obsess over frame rates, clean architecture, and making complex interactive experiences feel effortless. I've worked with small and big teams, always pushing for that sweet spot where technical craft meets creative expression.

I'm based in Florianópolis, a Brazilian island that's equal parts beautiful beaches and terrible traffic — so I spent plenty of time stuck at home writing code. When I'm not building games, I'm probably tweaking my terminal setup for the hundredth time, exploring some new dev tool, and lately exploring AI.
