Juan Toro

I'm a software developer with 6 years of experience, focusing on building interactive and user-friendly interfaces. Most of my work has been with e-commerce platforms like BigCommerce, where I've also tackled system integrations. Lately, I've been diving into Shopify and expanding on my solid technical foundation.

My core tech stack includes JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Next.js, and jQuery. I also have hands-on experience with back-end technologies such as C#, ASP.NET, Python, SQL, and AWS, typically for short-term projects.

When I'm not coding, I'm probably planning my next trip. I love traveling, good coffee, and cats! I'm always picking up something new, especially when it comes to tech or learning about different cultures.
