I'm a product lover

I'm a product lover (and, to be honest, sometimes a hater), 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, rock and country music, classic movies, astronomy, traveling, chess, gardening, photography, rugby, a good chat and The Big Lebowski. And I'm a big supporter of Atlético de Madrid football club ;)
