Hiya! I hail from Portugal, and I'm a years old software engineer currently living in Northern Ireland.
I'm most experienced with C# and Scala. In my spare time, I hack in Haskell and dabble in PureScript and Idris.
I have a Master's degree in Informatics and Computing Engineering and I currently work at SpotX.
