I'm very excited to be in the forefront of blockchain technology by becoming a full-time blockchain developer in 2023. I work with incredible blockchain developers and individuals at DappAstra Full-Stack DApp Development. I'm exploring opportunities in the blockchain technology space, not only EVM, but any blockchain. I am doing web development as well. I am based in Helsinki, Finland but I don't mind working remote.

You can check out some of my personal blockchain and web development projects in my Blockchain and Web development sections. At DappAstra we leverage our expert team to provide excellent service with freelance pricing.

EDUCATION

I graduated at the DApp University Blockchain Mentorship program at the end of 2023. There I learned a lot of technical skills and softer skills by communicating and discussing the projects. Currently I'm working on blockchain projects with my expert team at DappAstra. Really exciting times to say the least! My first touch with programming was when I made my first websites in the 90s.

Formally I have a Master of Science degree in Paper Technology and Wood Chemistry from the Aalto University in Espoo, Finland. Graduated in 2011.

I've also studied Latin American Business and Economics in UADE in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

SKILLS

I can create value to any organization or project with my Solidity, JavaScript/TypeScript, React.js, Next.js, Node.js, HTML, (Tailwind) CSS, Wordpress skills and general knowledge of online marketing tools and blockchain. Check out my public Github and my blockchain and web development portfolio projects.

Before going full time with blockchain development, I worked for 9 years as an entrepreneur in Argentina running my babies and kids clothing brand called Skidi. We manufactured and sold quality babies and kids autumn and winter clothing in the Argentine market via own website and e-commerce platforms.

I speak fluent Finnish, English and Spanish.

EXPERIENCE

I've been coding full time for almost 2 years now. I have learned a lot in that period. My current preferred tech stack is Next.js, JS/TS, Solidity, Tailwind CSS, Node.js.

I made my first investment in cryptocurrencies in 2017. Ever since then I've been interested in it's possibilities. There are already blockchain based solutions in the real world, but there's also a lot of yet undelivered promises and possibilities for the future. I am very pro-crypto after living and doing business in a country that had a failing currency (Argentine peso, ARS).

I'm fascinated by the psychology of markets which, in my opinion, is very visible in crypto as there is low liquidity and few institutions. I've seen the markets go up and down in cyclical manner. I've done leverage trading and played around with trading bots that talk directly to blockchain etc. Basically crypto has been a hobby of mine since 2017.

I've worked as a online clothing industry entrepreneur for nine years: 2015-2024. I did very diverse range of things like selling, marketing and copywriting, buying raw materials, controlling quality, managing warehouse and production, photography, graphic designing and accounting etc.

I also worked twice (in 2020 and 2021) on a temporary contract in the Finnish Embassy in Buenos Aires as an administrative officer of passports, residence permits and visas.
