About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To venture my own company on solar panels.

ABOUT ME

Social Entrepreneur. Curious. Geek. Lover of technology and environment. Dreamer. Free.

I lived 7 months in India working on an NGO and volunteering.

I like to dance, listen good world music, I try to keep doing some workout weekly, And watching some tv series.
Good talker, traveler, what some people call "millenial"

Right now i'm in the process for creating my own company for solar panels, mainly for people in need, who doesn't have electricity at all.

And I'm constantly looking and connecting ideas for new business.

PHILOSOPHY

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. Steve Jobs
