About me!

Hi, my name is Jorge da Silva.

I live in Toronto, Ontario in beautiful Canada. Originally from Portugal.

I came from a psychology background before moving into software development. Thanks to my somewhat unique background I've spent the last 6 years doing UX work across multiple countries and teams.

Today, I focus on frontend development, AI integrations, and product experiences that balance usability, performance, and aesthetics.

I enjoy building systems that make complex interactions feel simple and intuitive.

If I'm not doing working, you'll find me:

  • - Camping 🏕️
  • - Hiking 🥾
  • - Boxing 🥊
  • - Reading Horror Novels 🦇
  • - Walking my dog, Jake from Accounting 🐶
