Hola! I'm Alex, a Front End Developer with a passion for smart design and beautiful code.

I'm currently working as a senior software engineer at DHI Group Inc. helping employers and job seekers connect.

Previously I worked as a software engineer at Recount Media. If you don't follow The Recount, you absolutely should.

Over the years, I've gained experience working with various frameworks like Angular, React, and Vue. For personal projects, I always reached for Svelte. But I am now making a shift to Astro, which I used to build this site. Its scalability is impressive and its approach is refreshing.

I find satisfaction and joy working with vanilla HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. It allows for a more hands-on approach and a deeper understanding of the the Web Platform. I use Processwire CMS/CMF to develop most of my personal/freelance work, which allows me to focus on Web technologies without frameworks or libraries.

When not working, I enjoy spending time with my brilliant wife and two amazing daughters. I love exploring Mexican culinary arts (and perfecting my salsas) and plant-based cooking. I also enjoy listening to, discovering and sharing music, new and old. And when not doing any of the above, I pretend to know how to play music.
