Hello, my name is Paulo Rigter, I'm from Portugal, and I've always had a passion for coding. Started later, I'm my 30s, but I've been hooked ever since. I enjoy working on the frontend side, currently learning REACT. I am always eager to learn new things and grow as a developer. I've been learning NodeJS, Express, Mongoose, towards to make fullstack applications. When I'm not on the code editor, I enjoy time with my family, playing with my dog, meditate, excercise, playing tennis.
