I'm a product lover
I'm a product lover, so, I strongly believe in a process to get and deliver nice, useful and accurate products:
What else?
I also love riding my motorbike, books (of all kinds), history, poetry, rock and country music, classic movies, astronomy, traveling, chess, gardening, photography, juggling, mindfulness, rugby, playing darts, a good chat and The Big Lebowski... And I'm a big supporter of Atlético de Madrid football club ;)
I'm always willing to listen to every story behind a human being. Please, if you want to talk, have a cup of coffee or whatever, just contact me via my LinkedIn profile, take a look at my Toptal profile, or you can write me at my email.
Best regards!
