Twenty years building software across gaming, fintech, and security. Seven countries, multiple languages, still curious.
Born in Spain with German roots on one side, Spanish on the other. I've lived in seven countries, worked on three continents, and speak two languages fluently with a third in progress. Home is wherever the work is interesting.
I got into computers because of video games. It was love at first READY PLAYER ONE. Games led to curiosity about how they worked, curiosity led to code, and code became a career spanning two decades.
When I'm not building software or leading teams, I'm learning Japanese, training martial arts, dancing Argentine tango, watching Korean & Japanese dramas, listening to K-pop and J-rock, or embarrassing myself at karaoke. I like hobbies that make me a beginner again.
