I'm Andres, a Front-End Engineer and UI/UX Designer living in Dallas, Texas. I'm slightly obsessed with making digital products look great, feel smooth, and not make users want to throw their devices away. My experience goes from SEO and user interfaces to building full end-to-end financial applications with robust security, KYC, live data feeds, scalable databases processing thousands of trading data points per minute.
