About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Change the world. At least one of the 7 billion interpretations of it.

ABOUT ME

When I listen to older people saying:

-... you are young, when I was your age I also wanted to change the world.

I think about what could possibly went so wrong so that they lost hope somewhere in the way.

My greatest fear in life is to wake up one day, turn back, and realize I had lost it myself.

I am really passionate about what I do, I believe that design can be a powerful catalyzer of social changes, and a tool for improving people's lives.

“I'm not young enough to know everything.” ― J.M. Barrie

I love learning, asking questions, I believe everyone has a story to be told, and for me its always interesting to listen what people have to say.

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe Diem. Seize the day. Don't take things personal.

If you want to know something, just ask.
If you want to do something, just do it.
If you need to say something, just say it.

I just think life its easier and more honest this way :)
