Coder and entrepreneur with 18 years of experience. Founder of Catarse, the biggest crowdfunding platform of Latin America.
I started coding when I was fifteen: first with Basic and later moved on to Delphi. In 2005 inspired by a talk of DHH, the creator of Rails, I started one of the first Ruby on Rails agencies in Brazil with friends.
A few years later I became very passionate about crowdfunding, giving people the possibility of funding their endeavours. So I founded Catarse, which went on to become the biggest crowdfunding platform of Latin America. I also open sourced Unlock, a distributed & recurring crowdfunding platform.
Most recently, I've been CTO of T em Açúcar, the biggest social network for neighbours in Latin America, where I led an incredible team and worked full time with React Native for building our iOS + Android app.
