About me

Hello! My name is Pablo Melero, I’m a 28-year-old IT professional from the United Kingdom. I’m a friendly and ambitious person with a strong passion for leveraging technology to make a positive difference. As a computer systems developer, I’m fascinated by the endless opportunities that technology can offer.

Outside of my main work in IT, I enjoy refining my programming skills with languages like Python and Java. In my downtime, I love to unwind with video games. I’m also drawn to the outdoors—you’ll often find me on a walk or spending quality time with friends.

Throughout my career, I’ve had the chance to gain knowledge in various fields, building a strong foundation in computer systems, including expertise in VMware and cloud-based infrastructure. I’m skilled in several programming languages, such as C#, Python, and PHP, as well as in IT project management. This range of experience has given me a unique approach to tackling complex problems and crafting effective solutions.

I also live with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and Gastroparesis, which have taught me valuable lessons in resilience and adaptability. While these conditions are part of my life, they don’t define who I am. My goal remains focused on creating positive change through technology, and I believe my journey gives me a distinctive perspective on life’s challenges.
