Experiences

Here are some of the experiences I've had over the years.

Designer

The beginning of my career was as a designer, where I worked with motion design and graphic design. I've worked with some clients and also with some companies, creating animations, logos, branding, etc.

Motion Designer

(2016 - 2019)

Working on small projects but strict deadlines, animations and YouTube intros were my main focus. You can find some of my projects here. I've worked with:

  • Cinema 4D for animations and modelling.
  • After Effects for video editing and animations.
  • Premiere Pro for video editing.

A lot was learned during this period, like creativity, design thinking, and how to work with deadlines.

Graphic Designer

(2018 - 2020)

With some design experience and a lot of creativity, I started to work with graphic design, creating logos, branding, and other graphic materials. I've worked with:

  • Photoshop, for photo editing and manipulation.
  • Illustrator, for vectorial design.

Most of my design thinking, UI/UX and creativity skills were developed during this period.

Developer

I was already familiar with programming, manipulating Minecraft mods and plugins, but I got it more seriously in 2020, when the pandemic started and I had more time to learn and practice.

Front-end Developer

(2020 - 2021)

When migrating from design to programming, I worked with some front-end projects, creating small personal projects for practice. I started this journey with Python, but later got into the web development world. I've worked with:

  • HTML, for the structure.
  • CSS, for the style.
  • JavaScript, for the behavior.

During this period, I learned a lot about web development, but mostly about being more productive when coding.

Full-stack Developer

(2021 - Present)

Not satisfied with just the front-end, I started to work with back-end projects, as I wanted to create bigger applications. With more complex projects, the experience gained is huge:

  • Clean code.
  • Best practices.
  • Logic.
  • Problem-solving.

And a lot of other skills were, and are, being developed.

One crucial step was getting into FIAP — one of the best tech colleges in Brazil — where I'm currently studying to get a degree in Software Engineering.
