About me
Introduction
Hi, I am Alessandro Flori, software developer currently based in Padova, Italy. I have a background in programming languages and distributed systems. I am passionate and proud of my craft, and always interested in improving and learning new things. I am eager to apply my skills to solve new and interesting problems!
In my free time I like to read and watch sci-fi, keep up to date with the tech world, also, I am a very bad climber 🙃.
I will use this platform to showcase my personal projects and career. I will also publish some notes - from time to time.
