- 3. 1) First off, can you tell us a bit about yourself? Hello, my name is Vanderlei Sbaraini Amancio. I am 26 years old and known as Harry by friends. I live in Joinville in southern Brazil. Joinville is the largest city in the state of Santa Catarina. I'm in college, studying to get my bachelor degree in software engineering and I’m married to a beautiful woman and father of a beautiful baby girl. I was introduced to C language when I was about 13 years old. I read the Windows development guide and I used to be happy with any 'Hello World' on the screen! 03.03.2015 info@freelancermap.com
- 4. Soon my mind turned to game development and because of that I started using GIMP (an image editor) and I also began to program in GML (GameMaker Language). After creating many simple games (and unfortunately deleting them) my first job was in a large metallurgical company. Five years passed and I decided to start working on video productions, mainly in After Effects. About three years ago I resumed studying programming. The marvelous world of web development! Sometime my freiend Mauricio Bueno invited me to work with him. Bueno works in print design and he was in need of someone to develop the sites that he would design. 03.03.2015 info@freelancermap.com

We had worked together for about one year when I had a job interview and did some tests for a mid-developer job vacancy in the educational institution Bom Jesus IELUSC which educates kids from kindergarten to graduate school. I am part of the IT team and responsible for the development of the intranet and website. Now in 2015, I'm working on developing mobile applications and API to integrate and improve the communication and relationships between the institution, students and it´s parents. Currently I am using PHP, MySQL, Oracle and frontend languages (Js, Html, css / less). Iam also introducing NodeJS for API and cross platform development. 03.03.2015 info@freelancermap.com

- 7. 2) If you would search for your profile on Google, which are the three keywords you would type in the search bar? Web development, constant learning, inspiration. 03.03.2015 info@freelancermap.com
- 8. 3) What was your inspiration and when did you actually decide to become a freelancer? Actually I am a newbie freelancer. In fact, I am working as part of an IT team of a school institution. We are a small team, but we are good at what we do. I'm starting to freelance on the side and my motivation is to improve my skills and to help customers to achieve their goals. I find inspiration in rock n' roll music, portfolios, Behance, Awwwards, TED and several other blogs. There's no recipe for it! Even a rainy day can put a good idea in our minds! I have a plethora of ideas and one or two of them are documented on a business plan. I'm just waiting for partners and investors! Anyone interested just contact me! 03.03.2015 info@freelancermap.com
- 9. 4) What kind of services have your clients asked you to provide? They asked me to do web development (backend and frontend), video editing, motion design, photo editing, print design and illustration. This is it! 03.03.2015 info@freelancermap.com
- 10. 5) Do you use other freelancers or companies to provide skills that you don’t possess? Sure. I think it's the right way to do the thing! Can I do it? If I can't, I know where I can find someone to help me with it. I only think that I have to be true to the customer in telling him what I can do and what I can't. 03.03.2015 info@freelancermap.com
- 11. 6) Now tell us, how do you find new clients that are interested in your services? I started to look on freelance websites, mainly at first on Brazilian sites who publish offers. But Brazilian customers don't want to pay the amount that our work is worth. This is why to gather my future customers I'm launching my own site where I'll post my recent and future jobs. I have plans to make lesson videos in a short time and I've started developing an open sourced AngularJSbased content management system which will let the developer choose any backend. 03.03.2015 info@freelancermap.com
- 12. 7) What about freelancermap.com? Can you tell us a little bit about your experience with our IT-network? I found freelancermap via LinkedIn and thanks to Doreen Schollmeier’s profile.

I want them to feel satisfied so they will hire me again. 03.03.2015 info@freelancermap.com
- 14. 9) What are the top three books, blogs or magazines you read to stay up to date in the IT-market? Only three? It will be hard to name just three! Smashing Magazine, A List Apart, ShopTalk... Hey wait! There's Google! Haha… 03.03.2015 info@freelancermap.com
- 15. 10) Freestyle! Is there anything you would like to tell our readers? I have plans to live in North America or Australia or even in Europe. My English is good. So if someone needs an obsessed programmer I'm available ;). Finally, I believe that the IT professionals should never feel satisfied with their own professional level.
