About Me

marina marques

I'm a frontend engineer — which is just a fancy way to say I architect and build websites and applications. My coding journey began back when MySpace profiles were all the rage. I remember the thrill (and frustration!) of trying to figure out how to change the background color or make text flash, spending countless hours on customizations without noticing time fly by.

That feeling of creating something from scratch was exhilarating. Coding felt like building with Lego: you start with individual pieces that seem random, but bit by bit, they come together.
Suddenly, you've created something incredible — your own little castle.
