About Me

Hello, I’m Patrícia. I hold a degree in Chemical and Biological Engineering, but my journey goes far beyond what I learned at university. I have been building, through self-directed learning, a diverse set of technical and creative skills that allow me to approach problems with both depth and versatility.

I’ve taught myself programming, data analysis, digital organization, and practical automation. I study with purpose and curiosity, applying what I learn through real projects and solutions that blend technical precision with human insight. I work with Python, SQL, MySQL, Excel, and Google Docs, integrating these tools into personal and functional systems.

Much of what I create is rooted in real-life experience and close observation. I often draw from the field of education — particularly early childhood education — to structure pedagogical content that I curate and share on Pinterest. This practice helps me communicate complex ideas visually and accessibly.

Currently, I’m developing two digital tools with distinct purposes:
– A lightweight app for home use, designed to help individuals plan meals, organize their kitchens, and save time on everyday decisions.
– A professional kitchen management program, more robust and aimed at restaurants or food services, with features like intelligent recommendations, dietary planning, and weekly or monthly scheduling.

I also use programming in creative and organizational ways. I work with image processing through code — to enhance photos, generate visuals, or automate visual tasks. Additionally, I develop routines that help me structure my day, organize tasks, anticipate needs, and maintain a healthier relationship with time.

This portfolio reflects all of that: my academic background, my technical skills, the projects I’m developing, and the way I think. I like to approach problems as systems — identifying their elements, understanding their relationships, and designing practical, adaptable, and sustainable solutions.

I am curious, disciplined, and empathetic. I work with focus and enjoy learning from others. I believe in the power of applied knowledge — when it’s guided by clarity, usefulness, and intention.

If this resonates with you, or if you have a challenge in mind that could benefit from a thoughtful and technically grounded approach, I’d be happy to talk.
