I am Leandro Niero (he/they), a Brazilian/Italian developer, designer, and image maker based in London. I create web experiences and programme live visuals using a toolkit that includes full stack development, generative AI and art direction. At Goldsmiths University of London, my MA in Computational Arts has fortified my commitment to melding research and practical application through the development of thought-provoking software that has social impact. I am proficient in languages like Java, C++, Javascript and Python and experienced working with Agile methodology. In web design, I focus on responsive design and full-stack development, employing HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React.js, Node.js and Django to build user-centric digital experiences. My time at Sandbox VR has also expanded my skills in 3D interactive experiences. My portfolio includes personal projects and collaborations with musicians, brands, and non-profits. I am motivated to solve problems related to user experience and interaction. Deeply interested in promoting inclusivity and mental health through technology and novel software solutions. I am also passionate about addressing social issues affecting the LGBTQ+ community. Get in touch for professional engagements and collaborative prospects.
