Mordekaiser is a necromantic warlord and champion in League of Legends, known for controlling souls and dominating both the living and the dead.I swapped Morde for Mik. I have used Mikkaiser as my nickname in games, forums and anywhere else ever since. For some reason nobody else thinks of it, so it's always available ;)!
Six years across .NET, Node and the front ends on top of them. I build the internal platforms a government training authority runs on, end to end, and I train the people who inherit them.
Brazilian, based in Abu Dhabi. Two golds in software applications development, one platform with 780,000 users running code written by me, and a preference for software that stays simple as it grows.
