My name is Thiago Bellini Ribeiro - a 37 year-old Brazilian 🇧🇷 software engineer living and working in the Netherlands 🇳🇱 at Sendcloud, with my wife, two dogs 🐶, and two cats 😸.
I’ve been passionate about Python since 2010, using it both professionally and personally. As an open-source enthusiast, I’m always looking for ways to give back to the community. Since 2022, I’ve been a maintainer of the 🍓 Strawberry GraphQL Python library - a project I continue to support out of passion, even though I no longer use it in my day-to-day work.
Outside of coding, I’m known for my positive outlook and my eagerness to help others in the tech community. I love connecting with people, sharing knowledge, and contributing to a collaborative and forward-thinking industry.
