<h1 class="section-heading">Hello!</h1>
<p class="intro-p">I'm a designer with a background in the audiovisual field, currently improving my skills as a front-end developer at Thinkful.</p>
<p class="intro-p">I love Internet because of his amazing potential to connect people, ideas, knowledge, resources and dreams. Because it makes possible that great things happen to real people in the real world, multiplying the possibilities that we would have without it.</p>
<p class="intro-p">As a professional, I want to contribute to that, creating delightful web experiences that make sense to their users and that are functional.</p>
<p class="intro-p">In the web design and development, I have finally found the things that I love all together in one job: working with messages, ideas and communication. Building things that are beautiful and useful. And keeping both sides of my brain, the creative one and the analytic one, busy and happy.</p>
