About me

Hey, I'm Leonardo! I've been programming since 2004, but my true obsession lies in building interfaces that feel intuitive, elegant, and alive. From the pixelated screens of J2ME phones to immersive SmartTVs, videogame UIs, interactive panels, mobile apps, and modern websites—I've shaped digital experiences across nearly every screen imaginable.

My love for front-end engineering sparked in 2009, right when Node.js made its debut. Since then, I've ridden the wave of web evolution—from jQuery, Backbone, AngularJS, React, Angular (from 2010 onwards!) and beyond. It's been a wild, fascinating journey, and I'm thrilled to keep pushing boundaries in the years ahead.

🧪 Tech Playground

I thrive on crafting seamless user experiences with:

• React, Angular, and modern JS frameworks
• Performance tuning and accessibility
• Design systems and component architecture
• Azure devOps, from planning to deployment
• CSS-in-JS, SASS, Tailwind, and animation libraries
• I'm always exploring new tools and patterns to stay sharp and inventive.

🐾 Beyond the Code

When I'm not coding, you'll find me:

• 📸 Capturing moments through photography
• 🍳 Experimenting in the kitchen
• 🎸 Playing guitar and piano
• 🏃 Training for triathlons (coming back soon 💪)
• 🌲 Wandering nature trails with Teddy—my dog and the unofficial mascot of this site
• Teddy even makes a few cameo appearances in the site's visual identity. Keep an eye out 🐶

🤝 How I Work

I'm highly communicative and thrive in vibrant, collaborative environments. I believe in:

• Clear goals set by stakeholders
• Energetic, curious teams
• Learning through building
• Enjoying the process as much as the product

If you're looking for someone who codes with care and collaborates with heart, we might just get along.
