About Me
Read in the following section about who I am, my goals and interests
Who am i?
I am an Aerospace Engineering student at the Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM). While many in this field rely on natural-born talent, I’ve built my path on a different foundation: discipline. Born in Spain in 2006, I have always believed that hard work is the great equalizer. This mindset—that consistency beats raw gift every time—is what allowed me to enter the most prestigious engineering school in the country. Beyond the equations, I am a firm believer in the «Sound Mind, Sound Body» philosophy; I train daily to maintain the mental clarity and physical energy required to tackle the complexities of aerospace.

Abroad programs I have taken
10 days Erasmus Exchange in Cagliari
First time traveling abroad for studying purposes. I visited the Liceo Statale «Pitagora» di Selargius, at Cagliari, Italy.
I had such fun and learned a lot from inmersing in a some-what different culture. The cultural and language barrier wasn’t that large, so I was able to merge with ease, but that first experience away from the comfort of my home, and with my parents no where to be seen, was the starting point to develop a great passion for traveling while learning and immersing in different cultures.
6 Weeks Erasmus+ in Munich
One of my best friends and I were selected to go on this adventure, needless to say we accepted in the blink of an eye.
We were selected to attend Luitpold Gymnasium München, where we met many great colleges, with whome we spent long time with, inside and outside classes.
Unlike our previous erasmus experience, this was much longer, and we were able to immerse completely into their culture. This time we lived on our own, without a host family, we were on our own, and learned to cope with each other and do all chores by ourselves.
4 Weeks summer school in Beijing
Although I was the youngest student attending the summer course, I was selected team leader of a 10 people group. With the help of each teammate, we were able to create and pitch a system that detected moisture and was able to irrigate based on that information.
Outside classes, I met many different people, and was able to belong to a huge group of amazing collages, with whom I shared many great experiences, and will forever hold a special place on my heart.
Since that travel I’ve maintained contact with many of them, and met back in Spain again.

Project I am developing with a college
Space Known (Active)
My blog and newsletter where I write about Space and cover the latest news in the sector
Monday Growing (No longer Active)
An old project, where I created and scaled a blog and newsletter to over 3K active reader, where I covered topics like marketing, and shared tips on how to scale. I was able to monetize it through ad networks that provided constant ad spots for my daily newsletter issues.
3D NSUJPG (no longer Active)
I saw a gap on the market, and quickly developed a solution. There was a recent NFT collection built by spanish entrepreneurs, where many of the collectors where interested in showcasing there 2D nfts in 3D online spaces. I brought those 2D images into 3D objects, using Blender, and getting myself a few hundred bucks and some contacts within the community, by promoting my service through a handmade responsive web (which I built before AI coding tools) and social media.
Crypto Faucet (No longer Active)
I saw a tendency for people to want quick ways to earn some free crypto for doing tasks, I created a simple website where people could earn some coins by watching ads. While users earned crypto directly through my website, I was able to gather great knowledge about blockchain and my first insight into database and more advanced web development, moving away from simple static ones.
