CoffeeRide present
Last year, in 2024, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and move beyond React Native, the technology I had been working with for several years, and started experimenting with Swift. After several months of study and work, in January 2025, I launched CoffeeRide, an app designed to connect coffee shops with cyclists. Cyclists can view and leave reviews for the cafés they visit, upload their routes, and check if their path passes near a coffee shop to plan their coffee stop.
Why this app, you ask? Well, I’m a cyclist and a coffee lover 🚴☕️
The main technologies in this project are of course Swift & SwiftUI and Supabase.
Hakuna present
In 2022, I began working as a freelancer at Hakuna, a startup dedicated to bringing people closer to the practice of meditation and mindfulness. Currently, the app is available in three languages: English Spanish and Portuguese. My role on the team is to lead the development of the React Native app.
You can download the app from the following links:
Roomba Garage 2023
"Necessity is the mother of invention", and that's how Roomba Garage was born. My vacuuming robot didn't look good in the living room, so I decided to create a garage for it. The garage is made of wood and has a door that opens and closes automatically when the robot enters and leaves. Additionally, you can open or close the garage using Alexa. The door is controlled by a servo motor and an ESP32 board.
The main technologies used are ESP32, Alexa and Servo Motor.
Speak+ 2023
At Reason I was part of a great team of designers and developers with whom we built the webapp for Speak+, a platform that offers English 30-minute online speaking practice classes. My main responsibility in the project was to integrate Shopify so that the website is managed by the client without the need for technical profiles on their team.
The main technologies used are: Remix, Tailwind CSS and Shopify.
Unit 1 Faro 2021
At Aerolab I was part of a great challenge, which consisted of creating an React Native application that would interact with an urban cycling helmet and allow you to customize all its light settings. That was one of my main tasks, in addition to uploading the application on App Store and Google Play.
The main technologies used were: React Native, Styled-Components and Strapi.
Personal Blog 2020
Motivated by the desire to give back to the community a little of everything it has at given me and contribute my bit to the Spanish-speaking community, I decided to create my blog in which I write about topics related to frontend web development, but above all, the ones that I am most passionate about: web performance and accessibility.
This blog is located in Dev.to
Petersen Group 2020
At Aerolab I was part of a great team of designers and developers with whom we built the websites for 4 banks under the same design systems. My main responsibility in the project was to integrate Contentful CMS so that the websites are managed by the client without the need for technical profiles on their team.
The main technologies used were: React, Next.js, TypeScript, Styled-Components, Jest, StoryBook and Contentful.
