Info

What is this site built with?
HTML, CSS and JavaScript, with no framework or site generator. The background is contour lines drawn with Three.js; on Projects it's a globe of dots, because everything changes there. If your browser doesn't support WebGL, they simply aren't there.
Can I use your code?
What's public on my GitHub, yes. What's private stays private.
How did you learn to code?
I like anything to do with technology. I owe a lot of what I know to my sister: she got me interested in research, and my career grew out of that. The rest I learned in university projects, from databases to systems architecture. During the exchange at PUCP there was a client involved, a real simulation of the process.
What tools do you use every day?
Next.js, React and TypeScript for the web. Java with Spring Boot on the backend. Python for AI and data: models and computer vision. And Git, Docker and Linux on a VPS to put things online.
Do you work with businesses outside tech?
Yes, and that's what interests me most. Almost everything I've built came out of applied research; I won UNHEVAL's undergraduate research grants in 2023 and 2025. There, someone from outside brings the problem and the technology comes later: that's how ALPAKITAY (for Quechua), the vest for blind people and CARDIONET came about. At the AYNI hackathon we built CONECTA for small businesses in Huánuco. If you have a calculation or a paperwork process that eats up your time, write to me and we'll take a look.
What are you working on now?
Looking for my inner self by building this portfolio.
