Presentation

I am a Systems Engineer with a Master’s degree in Software Engineering Management (degree pending), specialized in LMS platforms, backend development, and large-scale system integrations.

I have solid experience working with educational institutions and digital learning environments, leading LMS implementations, migrations (Moodle to Canvas), and automation processes that significantly reduce operational workload.

My professional background combines technical expertise and functional knowledge, allowing me to understand both system architecture and real business needs.

I specialize in:

LMS implementation and administration (Moodle, Canvas, Blackboard)
API integrations and automation (PHP / Laravel)
Large-scale course migration and content transformation
Process optimization for educational platforms
Backend development and database management (MySQL)

I have participated in projects involving thousands of users and high-volume content processing, ensuring scalability, efficiency, and system reliability.

I am currently available for freelance projects, LMS consulting, and backend development focused on automation and integrations.
