CURRENT MISSION

Learn and enjoy life.

ABOUT ME

I come from Mexico, but I have been in Europe for the last two and a half years, first studying a master on applied ecology and now a PhD at the ETH Zurich.

I love traveling and getting to know new people because it is the best and most fun way to learn about life and the world.

I have a curious mind that loves to marvel at the wonders of the universe.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy the present.
Try to learn from everything.
Helping people and sharing the joy of life.
