Hi, I'm Carolinne

Frontend Developer | React + Next.js | UI/UX | Clean Code | CI/CD

My background is in architecture. Now I also design in code. I care about how things look and how they work. I build clean, useful interfaces using modern tools.
This site is my playground and my portfolio.

My Journey

This is me, figuring things out in public.

Creative beginnings
Before coding, I was already creating — logos, invitations, visual pieces for friends and family. That sense of care still lives in the interfaces I build.
From architecture to interaction
Working as an architect taught me to think about structure, flow, and people. Code gave me a faster way to experiment and improve.
That first 'it works' moment
The first time I saw something I built work in the browser, I felt something shift. I wasn’t just learning — I was building.
Going all in
I joined a full-time bootcamp and started building real projects under pressure. That’s where I found rhythm, confidence, and collaboration.
Learning by doing
I set up GitHub Actions, explored Sanity as a CMS, and kept pushing myself to learn by actually shipping things.
