Senior Middleware Administrator | Oracle DBA
I’m passionate about technology, exploration, and finding the perfect balance between professional growth and personal adventures.
Beyond databases and middleware, I believe that great technology solutions come from understanding both systems and people. My journey has taken me from Brazil to Romania, and finally to Spain, where I’ve learned that adaptability and curiosity are just as important as technical expertise.
Whether I’m troubleshooting a critical Oracle issue at 3 AM or training for my next half-marathon, I approach challenges with the same mindset: persistence, attention to detail, and a good sense of humor.
