Portrait of Tiago Santos

About me

Building products that feel clear and considered.

I'm a full-stack developer and multimedia student who ships modern web products end to end β€” polished interfaces, solid APIs, and reliable deployments. I like working where product design and engineering meet.

I'm currently working full-time, and outside of that I keep building personal projects and exploring new ideas.

When I'm not coding, I'm usually listening to music or going out with friends.
