About me!
This is where I start writing about myself… kind of a hard task already, huh? But I’ll do my best.
My name is Daniel Santil. Born and raised right in the middle of the Caribbean, in my beloved Dominican Republic.
I have 7+ years working as a software engineer, mainly as a backend developer, although I was involved with frontend development for a while… And hey, it’s not that scary after all!
That being said, I still lean towards backend development, I guess I prefer being in the shadows. :)
Well, let me break this down; Most likely I won’t know EVERYTHING about a specific tool, framework, language, etc., but I always find myself reading about best practices, improving my code base, trying to keep it clean and readable, and assisting teammates.
Of course, I love challenges, developing something new, connecting some weird legacy system with, I don’t know, whatever is required? Sign me up!
Oh, did I mention that I also play the guitar? I don’t consider myself a pro (not even close TBH), but let’s see how it turns out It started as a hobby, but as of 2023, I’ve been involved in some serious music projects with some of the main Christian artists in the Dominican Republic. So there’s that.
I also like traveling, meeting new people and exposing myself to different cultures.
OK, enough!!
