About me

Resume
Felipe Gonzalez smiling

Developer first, curious about the whole product.

I'm a Full Stack Developer based in Vancouver. I started in web design, and that background still shapes how I build. I care about clean code, thoughtful interfaces, and understanding the real problem before reaching for a solution.
