Passionate about making a positive impact, I develop various projects that share an essential purpose: to use technology, especially Artificial Intelligence, as an engine to add value and positively contribute to our society.My experiences in the entrepreneurship unit of Mondragon University, where I co-founded a cybersecurity project with a business model validated by various clients, and where I won an innovation hackathon for a pharmaceutical company, have been some of the milestones representing my ability to conceptualize and bring innovative solutions to the market.A central pillar in my approach is philosophy, which I study and apply continuously to fuel a deep and critical reflection in all areas of my life. With a humble and conscious vision that we still have much to learn about ourselves, I see Artificial Intelligence as a potentially transformative tool for knowledge and the improvement of human consciousness.As CFO of a group of projects and Co-Founder of an AI training and consulting venture, I prioritize the use of data and evidence for decision-making. I deeply value honesty, vulnerability, self-leadership, and effective communication in my work. I strive to be present in what I do and seek to optimize task management.I openly acknowledge that, in my personal SWOT analysis, two areas I'm working to improve are my interpersonal intelligence and the implementation of received feedback. I strive to treat every challenge as an opportunity for personal and professional growth, both for myself and my team.Outside of the professional sphere, I enjoy sports, as evidenced by running the Barcelona Marathon in 2023. I also cultivate my interests in geopolitics, philosophy, psychology, neuroscience, astronomy, and economics. These activities help me maintain a broad worldview and improve my relationship with myself.I see the current global challenges, like climate acceleration, as opportunities to apply technology and AI in an ethical and conscious manner. I am convinced that we have the potential to make a significant contribution to our species and the planet if we handle these powerful resources with care and respect.In summary, I am considered a reflective, entrepreneurial leader passionate about technology, always seeking ways to learn, grow, and make a positive contribution to my field and the world.Thank you for reading!
