I love traveling and getting to know different cultures. I was born in Chile, my father was born in Germany, I lived for a year in Cuba, where I met my ex-wife (I love to dance salsa) and I lived in Boston for five years, studying economics at Harvard University. I am a university professor, I enjoy playing sports, skiing, snowboarding, biking, and I love nature

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I studied Marxism at the University of Havana and then Economics at Harvard, because I wanted to understand both views of the economy.
