Hullo, I'm Marcelo!

About Me

I’m studying a BSc in Data Science because I’d love to mix my love for cricket with a career in data analysis (wicket nerds unite!).
Alongside my studies, I’m making wee games with Lua for the Playdate and Python for those classic CLI vibes I grew up with.
Lately, I’ve also been building Python tools to make life (and code) a bit easier. I also put my experience in game localization and EN↔PTBR translation to work supporting indie games and devs.

Outside of tech: I’ve played in bands, worked as a sound engineer, and volunteered in DIY punk spaces.
I prefer they/them pronouns.

Skills & Tools:
Python Lua Excel SQL Git Playdate SDK Translation Tools
