Welcome!
My name is Fernando Destefani and I am a Software Engineer.
I am a multidisciplinary professional currently completing my career transition from medicine to Software Engineering. Passionate about front-end development, I am working towards becoming a proficient Full Stack Developer.
The road so far...
I’m currently in the fourth year of my Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering, completing a career transition from Medicine to Technology. With a solid background in healthcare, I worked for seven years as a general practitioner, gaining strong interpersonal and problem-solving skills and firsthand experience in the healthcare domain as a user of systems like SaúdeIngá. This domain knowledge gives me a valuable perspective that I now apply in tech.
