Entre produção musical e programação, decidi ir de cabeça no desenvolvimento e, em 2013, iniciei minha carreira na área como freelancer, em 2018 me encontrei como autônomo e em 2021 iniciei como empresário, apesar de sempre colocar "desenvolvedor" nos formulários de profissão.

Em 2021 criei minha primeira aplicação open-source e dois anos depois, fui convidado para ser membro de um projeto chave no eco-sistema do Node.js, o MySQL2, onde futuramente, também passei a integrar projetos do MySQLJS.

Minha maior conquista foi receber meu primeiro dólar no GitHub Sponsors (não é sobre valor, sabe?). Pequenos detalhes às vezes fazem grandes diferenças 🤝
