Who am I

Born in 2003, I'm a developer who's nostalgic for an era I never really lived in. My first real contact with this kind of aesthetic wasn't the chaotic web of the early 2000s, but the glossy, optimistic world of Windows Vista and Windows 7, where the Frutiger Aero style reigned supreme.

I'm primarily a backend developer—I love building the logic and the engines that make things run. Styling and frontend aren't my main passion, but I have a deep appreciation for the Y2K aesthetic because it represents a time when every website had its own unique soul, long before social media templates made every page look the same. I'm here for the weird, the wonderful, and the wildly different backgrounds.

While I'm actively looking for my first professional role as a developer, I spend my time creating my own worlds by developing games, which you can find over on my itch.io and GitHub.

About This Site

This website is my personal digital garden and a love letter to the early internet. It's built with modern tech like Next.js, React, and Vercel, but with a soul firmly planted in the Y2K aesthetic. Expect to find code experiments, personal thoughts, and a lot of animated GIFs.

You might notice I'm from Brazil, but the site is primarily in English—mostly because I feel like it. That said, please feel free to sign the Guestbook in whatever language you're comfortable with, be it Portuguese, English, or anything in between. I have no plans to add a language selector; the goal is to keep this space simple, stylish, and a little bit chaotic, just like the old web was meant to be.
