About me

Building and optimizing products for more than 12 years. Experience building and leading teams of developers, designers, and program managers, with hands-on participation, while providing guidance and leadership to build quality products. I like to incorporate agile methodologies and rapid prototyping tools for every project I work on. Passionate about solving problems and facing new challenges.

I’m curious since I was a child. I notice the small details that others do not see and I always loved figuring out how things work, which causes that alternatives ways of doing the same thing come to my mind, with simpler, better, and/or more creative solutions in many cases.

Taking advantage of these abilities, I have been wearing many different hats in my career, developer, researcher, consultant, marketer, creative, manager, strategist… As a result, I achieved the ability to manage multi-disciplinary projects and to navigate in complex environments.
