I am an entrepreneur from Colombia; in a past life I was a former pro-athlete and derivatives analyst at a company in NYC and Barcelona. Now I live in Spain but have been traveling to the USA for investors' meetings.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I am closing a round for our education startup. Couchsurfing seems to be an alternative that is low cost and interesting to meet cool people.

Interessen

I absolutely love books. I have lost count of how many I have read but it must be over 250 now. From French literature to the Greek classics to finance, behavioral psychology, design and fiction, books are my favorite.

I also enjoy traveling. I have been to Colombia, Argentina, India, Chile, Mexico, USA, France, Spain, Israel, Kenya, Dubai, Hong Kong, Switzerland, Venezuela, Brazil and Paraguay. I lived for 18 years in Colombia before moving to the US for college and eventually to Chile, Mexico and Spain.

Regarding design and finance: I think design is everything. It is at the core of our human experience and everything that is around us. Finance is a way to better understand how full of biases we are - and also build a passive income system - to have more time to focus on what I enjoy the most.
