About
Welcome to my profile!
I am a 14-year Python engineer.
I have been working with Python, Django and Flask since 2012, started in France, lived in the UK for 5 years and now enjoy the south of Spain.
I built my projects early in my career, which led me to upskill quickly with Python. I have also had the chance to collaborate with talented engineers to develop my critical thinking and skills.
Today, my mission is to spread the word of good practices and help isolated developers improve technically with Python. 🐍
About me:
Active, I learn piano and the Spanish language in my spare time.
I like sports, hiking and cooking.
# Me as a mentor:
I will share my knowledge and experience in a condensed way (10 years => 1 year).
I will help you raise your confidence in your problem-solving ability. With this mindset, you will approach any future obstacles as a game. You will learn to focus on the solution instead of focusing on being blocked.
My mentees say the following about me:
Knowledgeable, Friendly, Patient
# Profiles, I am currently helping:
- Vibecoders learning the programming fundamentals
- Students learning Python, building a portfolio of projects
- Engineers improving with Python
- Entrepreneurs/Hobbyists developing a side business
Recently, I got new slots available to help.
Let's start with an introduction session!

What mentees say
5 out of 5 stars
I've worked with Alex for over two years, and it's been one of the best investments I've made in my own development. We covered a lot of ground in that time— from Python fundamentals to API development, database design, AI integrations, and building genuine end-to-end solutions. Alex is an exceptional developer, but what really sets them apart is how they think. They'd take a half-formed idea, pull it apart, and help me reason my way to a cleaner, more robust approach than the one I came in with. That logical, structured way of driving a problem to a solution is the thing I've learned most from. They meet you where you are, scale the depth to what you actually need, and are consistently generous with their time and knowledge. I've come away with relevant solutions, better habits, and a much sharper sense of how to architect things myself. If you're looking for a mentor who can genuinely take you from concept to solution and make you a better engineer along the way, I'd recommend Alex without hesitation.
