About Me

Hi I'm Joel, a Frontend Developer and Interactive Designer who has been working in several projects with React, Angular and Vue.js since 2019. As an IT professional I am interested in challenging projects that keep me permanently learning. Also I like to implement new technologies, best practices, libraries and frameworks in the projects I work. Furthermore, since 2023, I had the opportunity to start coordinating the team I worked with, so I began to be interested in management and tasks related to leadership and teams coordination. I consider myself a curious person who enjoys growing as a professional, working on projects in different areas.
