Hey there, I'm Alfonso Millรกn.

I am a former mechanical engineer turned fullstack software developer.

For four years, I designed and developed products for the semiconductor industry, which aids in the development of silicon wafers. Because of my love for engineering and my drive as a lifelong learner, I fell in love with software development. I am a strong believer in technology's potential to develop innovative products quickly, and its ability to solve practical problems for people who need them.
