About Me
01Hi 👋, my name is Francisco. I am a 22 year-old, fifth-year Computer Science and Engineering master's student from Portugal @FCT NOVA!
I am interested in being part of challenging projects that enable me to uplift my hard skills mainly in Full Stack and Software Development.
On a more personal level, I would like to encounter a project and a team with whom I can learn from, share my general knowledge and points of view, and enhance my soft skills. Besides being a good team player, I am eager to learn and to develop myself among the best!
Welcome to my portfolio!
My Interests
Beyond my academic and professional pursuits, I have a strong passion for sports, particularly padel, tennis, and basketball. Staying active is essential to me, and I enjoy the strategic and dynamic aspects of these games. I also enjoy playing chess, a game that challenges my analytical thinking, patience, and decision-making skills—qualities that I find valuable both in sports and, generally, in life.
Music is another significant part of my life. I studied classical guitar at a music conservatory for five years, where I developed a deep appreciation for musical structure and expression. Later, I transitioned to electric guitar, inspired by legendary artists such as Mark Knopfler, Eric Clapton, B.B. King, John Mayer, etc.. My music taste is quite eclectic, though it leans strongly toward classic rock and blues. Feel free to check out one of my most-listened playlists, which you are now listening to on 
Reaching Zenith
I also love traveling and exploring new cultures, as it broadens my perspectives and enriches my experiences. Additionally, I am passionate and optimistic about technological evolution and actively try to keep up with it.
