Summary

I have academic and professional knowledge of building scalable, reliable and REST-compliant services. After graduating from Physics, I enrolled in a Masters in Informatics Engineering where I specialised in Formal Methods and further developed my analytical skills and Mathematical toolset.

Python is the programming language I use the most. I have built scientific projects with the NumPy and SciPy packages as well as web apps using Django/Flask. I work with various other web technologies as well (AngularJs, nodeJs, jQuery), using mostly Amazon AWS or Heroku to build fully fledged secure and reliable web apps. I've spoken at PyCon UK 2016 and I'm a Python teacher assistant for Code First: Girls.

Currently, I developing my own products and leading a team of 3 people on my Python consultancy company.
