📋 Biography
I have worked with databases for over 10 years. I started learning by formatting my own Windows when I got my first PC, which led me to learn a lot about Windows and drivers, mainly because of game emulators. Later, I began learning programming: HTML, then JavaScript, PHP, and finally databases. When I started university, I already had experience with web development, which helped me get my first internship, where I learned SQL Server. Since then, I have continued studying my foundations: internals, hardware, and how computers work. This guided me to learn other operating systems, like Linux, and other programming languages, and it is still the base of my learning today, as I study AI. Throughout this journey, I also developed a passion for sharing knowledge with the community, since much of what I learned came from people who freely shared their knowledge online. This is my main principle: delivering high-quality knowledge freely, spreading learning through the community.
