I'm passionate software engineer and entrepreneur.

Creator of Esmerald and many other opensource projects.

Web 3.0, Cloud, Data Analytics, Blockchain and all in between are the areas that I can help you.

I created Esmerald, Saffier, Asyncz, Django Tenants URL, Django Messages DRF and a bunch of other opensource tools being widely used by a lot of companies and people.

I do a lot of Open Source projects and code to give back to the community what I've learnt and that demands even more time than the one I currently have and all my free time goes to the free and open-source software I build.

By checking my public repositories you will see that I've done a lot of the heavy lifting for a lot of frameworks (Django, Flask, FastAPI, Angular, React, React for Blockchain...) that will save a lot of time and configurations, it will save months to be very honest to a lot of developers (structure, configurations...), I hope you enjoy using them as I do enjoy maintaining them

I’m a passionate believer in enabling engineers to focus on the interesting parts of their job and less on the mundane; through elegant tooling, automation and fantastic developer experiences. Happier developers supported by great tooling build better products.
