About

Bio

Hey there! 👋🏻 I'm Alex Cali, a Software Engineer based in Toronto, Canada.

I love turning ideas into functional, elegant, and scalable solutions. While my expertise lies in Full Stack Development, I also enjoy diving into Web3 🌐 and mobile development📱 when curiosity calls.

Whether it's crafting seamless user experiences or solving complex problems, I thrive on writing clean, efficient code.

When I'm not coding, you'll probably find me immersed in '80s pop culture — whether that's vibing to synthwave 💿, rewatching classic films 📼, or geeking out over retro tech 💾.
