Hi, my name is

I’ma Web Developer

I have a background in Computer Science and Engineering and also work in insurance and financial brokerage, talking every day with people who run a business. I founded Barata Studio, where I design and build custom websites and apps.

One person, three fronts, the same care in each.

Born in Lisbon, engineer in the making and obsessed with detail. I like turning ideas into things that work, from the first sketch to deploy, and leaving them better than I found them.
