ABOUT ME ?

I'm Portuguese living in Slovakia for over a decade.
My career path has been in corporate during this period in the Business Controls and Governance Risk & Compliance field.


I'm passionate about Visual Arts and tech which led me way back in 2004 to start experimenting with building small websites (mainly as a hobby).
