Self-taught

Technology and determination

Entirely self-taught in computing and systems, working freelance from a very young age.

01Origins

I was born in 1992 in the Raval neighbourhood of Barcelona, into a deeply broken family environment. From the ages of 12 to 18 I lived in various youth care homes, with no formal schooling and minimal resources.

During that period I built an entirely self-taught education in computing, systems and digital environments. I worked as a courier at an insurance brokerage, as a computer technician and in IT support, providing technology services on my own account from a very young age.

02Business journey

On coming of age, I began providing digital and online marketing services, especially web design and lead-generation campaigns on Google AdWords, working directly with small and medium-sized businesses. This stage, between 2009 and 2011, was decisive in later founding and running multiple companies across diverse sectors.

What seemed like an insurmountable obstacle became the driving force behind my determination.
