About Me
Born in Seville, I’m passionate about economics and psychology. Since I was a kid I love learning new things. This helped me achive honors in my baccalaureate and several scholarships
As a kid, I had the opportunity to study in Ireland, Germany and France
While in high school I started to learn Finances
I was very keen on business and finance. I started reading Rich Dad Poor Dad, Tim Ferris 4 Hour Work Week … and kept going from there. Lean Startup, From zero to one…
I started learning what I wasn’t taught in high school
After High School
I decided to study Psychology, after reading Thinking fast and Slow, by Daniel Kahneman
Soon I realized I wouldn’t learn decision-making theory or anything related to economics. After receiving honors in Social Psychology, I switched to a business major
My first dollar
After my first year, I decided it was time to work. I had always dreamed about going to the US, and I got the perfect opportunity when two americans friends invited me to their wedding.
I found a job in a theme park where I distinguished very fast. By the third week I was named employee of the week, and soon after my ride became ride of the week.
If you feel lost, disappointed, hesitant, or weak, return to yourself, to who you are, here and now and when you get there, you will discover yourself, like a lotus flower in full bloom, even in a muddy pond, beautiful and strong.
