ABOUT ME

I am a curious person and a experienced traveller. I think to myself as a nice friend to my friends, but also a helpful and open person to everybody. I studied Production Engineering and currently I am studyin my PhD on management Engineering, but I dont see myself as a typical engineering, in fact now im working in Social bussinesses, an special kind of bussiness created to solve a social need. For example: Microcredits in bangladesh or SMS banking services in Kenya. Now I am taking 4 months off from job in a sabatical time to get some ideas and inspiration for a new stage on my life after I got 30years.

Interests

I love surfing and since I discovered it 7y ago it become and important part of my life. I have travelled to many places in north and south america, Africa, all accross europe, Asia and now finally Australia. I love travelling because it grows your uniderstanding of the world, expand your mind and foster your creativity. I like reading about entrepreneurship, economics and management. Now I am hooked to some TV series like: Breaking Bad, The Wire or Sillicon Valley and I didnt liked at all Lost, if you were a fan, I sorry we dont have a common point here ;)
