Hi! 👋

I'm Mariana,
a web developer.

I am based in Lisbon, Portugal.

With both an analytical and a creative side, I'm a problem-solver at heart. Since I started coding, I use this skill on a consistent daily basis and have fun while doing so! I also love engaging in meaningful and challenging projects, that allow me to both give a contribution and grow.

I come from different backgrounds that helped me boost many different skills. I studied Music (and specifically violin), and along the way I've improved my focus, my precision and accuracy, cooperation and teamwork (playing in orchestras had a major role in that!).

I also studied Visual Arts in High School, and that boosted not only my creativity, but also my eagerness to learn and experiment new things (adding up a bit of perfectionism!).

Afterwards, I've completed a Master's in Psychology, where along the way I've also got involved with several different organizations, that boosted my interest for organizational growth and businesses. I've also presented some workshops at my University, something I love doing. Studying Psychology helped me develop several skills like perseverance and patience, but also made me a definite teamplayer, with a good understanding and ability to work with very different people, from almost any background.

And now?

Since I've tried Web Development, I've realized this is what I want to pursue and invest in my career. Coding is now a daily habit and being a Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) prepared me for the flow of development. I am always looking for more projects I can get my hands on, so if you have something in mind please feel free to say hi. I also can't think of something better to work on than something you love.

I'll just keep growing and never stop!
