I'm technologist with a passion for Web Development, Design and Creativity. I put in my best effort to provide users with a highly interactive and rich experience through Web and Mobile applications.

I'm design enthusiast and a self-made artist —at least that's what I like to think. I really enjoy collaborating with folks with different creative specialties — consider technology as a creative specialty too— to build great applications.
