Hi! 👋

I'm a frontend enthusiast and a proper nerd. I do enjoy coding.
In recent years I focused mainly on frontend architecture design for ecommerce platforms. I love data flow and state managements, when thoroughly thought; functional and smooth UIs; solid testing, especialy when made easy to maintain.
When leading, I do invest time in building cohesive teams where everyone - me included - should have the time and opportunity to grow (*) as professional.
* Sourceability supported me in creating a program where the team read and presented one book a month, during dedicated working hours. Getting paid to learn: how cool is that?

Feelings 💚

In a strong and romantic relationship with HTML (and Twig), CSS (BEM, Sass, Less), Javascript (ES5.1, 6, 7 and counting), Typescript, React, Vue, Webpack, Vite, Cypress, Jest, Git.

Having an affaire with PWA, Svelte, NextJs, Functional Programming.

Had a couple of dates with RxJS, GraphQL, Php.

My main responsibility was to (re)design the frontend architecture and maintain sourcengine.com B2B ecommerce platform and other internal projects. Particularly interesting was co-designing the BDD inspired, E2E testing suite using Cypress and Cucumber. To achieve that, I could count on a small amazing team of engineers and designers.
