About Me
Learn about my personal life, career path, and curiosities. Discover what shaped me into who I am today.
Hey there! I'm Rafael Fragoso, a software engineer who's been crafting digital experiences since 2007. My journey began with PHP, HTML & CSS, and it's been an incredible ride ever since.
Born and raised in Rio de Janeiro—the marvelous city I proudly call home—I'm Brazilian through and through. I share my life with my amazing wife and our brilliant 8-year-old daughter, who keeps reminding me what truly matters.
I'm deeply passionate about open source, creating intuitive user experiences, and pushing the boundaries of web performance. When I'm not coding or tinkering with new projects, you'll find me enjoying the beach, diving into games, watching movies, or simply savoring quality moments with my family.
I also run Workbits, a thriving Discord community with over 1,000 developers. It's a welcoming space where we share knowledge, support each other's growth, and build meaningful connections—regardless of experience level.
Standing at 176cm tall. Perfectly average—not too tall, not too short. Just right for reaching the keyboard comfortably.
Been coding since I was 13 years old. Now 32, with 19 years of experience. Still feel like I'm learning something new every day.
