Hi Rodrigo 👋

Welcome to web development. I just checked your website. Congratulations, you did it. You published a website about you and your services. Awesome.

Some feedback to improve:

Add better HTML titles, which will improve your SEO rating.
Make your website work on multiple screen sizes. Check out responsive webdesign.
Set a maximum width for textual content. On large screens it is really hard to read the longer section about you.
Add a favicon to your website.
There is one image with a missing alt tag. You should always provide proper alternative texts for images.
Your website loads a lot of JavaScript, but I do not see why JavaScript is needed at all. You should only use JavaScript, if you need it.
Run Google Lighthouse to get more tips.

In general I advise you to learn more basics.

Nice work. I just have one suggestion. The right side of the home page looks empty. Move the avatar section to the center.

Also, if you have time, checkout a portfolio builder that I have made:

arifszn / gitprofile

Create an automatic portfolio based on GitHub profile

GitProfile

Easy to use portfolio builder for every GitHub user!

What if you could create your portfolio in 5 minutes just by providing your GitHub username and even host it without any cost? Do you want to display your skills, job history, education, or even blog posts on your website? Introducing GitProfile.

GitProfile is an easy to use portfolio builder where you can create a portfolio page automatically by just providing your GitHub username. It is built using React.js on top of Vite.js. But it's not necessary to have knowledge on these to get you started. You can make your own copy with zero coding experience.
