About Me
I enjoy creating things that live on the internet! My formal background is in mechanical design and my interest in web development started back in 2020 when I built my first web application — for a passion of mine, Argentine Tango.
Today, I'm the lead developer at Gaia Law, building AI-powered tools for contract and equity management. I'm product-focused and design-oriented—I believe beautiful code and thoughtful interfaces go hand in hand.
Technology
I believe in choosing the right tool for the job, not the newest or most popular one. My approach is to prioritize developer experience, maintainability, and user performance. I prefer proven technologies that enable rapid iteration and long-term stability.
