Self-taught fullstack developer

Building things
I'm proud of

Hi, I'm Xiomara — a self-taught developer from Guatemala who loves building beautiful, intuitive things for the web. I've spent the past year learning fullstack development through courses, challenges, and a lot of hands-on building.

About me

More than
a student

I started learning to code out of pure curiosity — and fell completely in love with it. From HTML basics to building fullstack apps with Node.js and APIs, every project has pushed me further than the last.

I'm actively looking for my first dev role or internship. I bring attention to detail, a strong eye for design, and the kind of patience that only comes from debugging your own code at 2am.
