About

Since 2017, I’ve been a Senior Developer at Virtualcare (Porto), where I design and develop digital healthcare solutions — but always with a broader lens. I approach user experience as ethnographic cartography: mapping workflows, interfaces, and data flows with the sensitivity of someone navigating a cultural landscape. My interests in mythogeometry and semiotics of space shape how I see digital platforms — not just as tools, but as environments rich with meaning, memory, and interaction. I’m passionate about crafting thoughtful, human-centered digital experiences — and about being a husband and father, which keeps everything in perspective.
