About me

Hello, I'm Cristina Recasens. I'm a software developer with a Higher Vocational Degree in Multiplatform Application Development. I mainly work with Python, Java and SQL, and I'm interested in building useful applications and solving problems through code.

I have a strong analytical background and a structured approach to tackling complex problems, as well as an interdisciplinary profile. Before moving into software development, I studied Biology and completed a Master's degree in Terrestrial Ecology, where I trained in statistics, modelling and data analysis using R and QGIS.

I enjoy developing projects that combine programming and data to create tools that turn ideas into real and functional applications.

If you'd like to know more about my profile, you can download here my CV. Feel free to get in touch!
