Building today, learning for tomorrow.
I'm a software developer and Psychology student in Bagé, Rio Grande do Sul (RS), Brazil. Focused on integrating these two passions, I'm building a solid career in tech while preparing to fulfill my dream of practicing psychoanalysis — with the intention of pursuing both professions.

"Every individual carries a singular story and unique processes that deserve to be heard and held with real depth."Amanda Colares · @colaresamanda_eu
Technology and Psychology aren't opposite paths for me; they're two passions that walk together.
The Current Chapter (Development)
My path in technology taught me about organization, technical clarity, and methodologies that streamline teamwork. It’s a craft I practice with real dedication, building interfaces and efficient systems that make life easier for the people who use them.
Software development is a career I'm building with pride, and one I intend to keep actively pursuing — always working to align technical performance with usability and a good experience.
The Horizon (Psychology)
Alongside that, I found in psychology and psychoanalysis a calling to understand human beings in their totality. I believe every individual carries a singular story and subjective processes that deserve to be heard and held ethically.
My great dream and goal is to also practice as a clinical psychologist in the Bagé (RS) region, building my own practice. My professional future lies exactly at the union of these two fields: staying active in technology while practicing clinical, psychoanalytic care.
Where technology and psychology stop being just a talking point.
PsycheMap is an emotional monitoring platform that works over WhatsApp: patients log how they feel in a simple conversation, and psychologists arrive at the next session with the emotional map of the week, instead of reconstructing it all in a 50-minute appointment.
It's the project where both halves of my path actually meet: the data engineering I apply at work and the clinical listening I study in college. Every entry feeds a mood curve built on an exponential moving average. In the app, everything is encrypted on the device before it leaves; on WhatsApp, consent comes first, with a clear account of what is protected and what isn't.

I started a YouTube channel to talk about what building a startup is really like, including the scary parts.
Starting a Startup Is Scary (and Nobody Talks About It)
My first video: about the fear that shows up right when things start to work out, and why I kept going even without feeling ready.

"Developing is an act of translating intentions. My commitment is to the individuality of people — treating technology as a tool to amplify what’s human, not to standardize it."
