About

I'm a Data Engineer from Barcelona, with a BS in Data Engineering from Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona.

These days I'm the Founding Sales Engineer at Prosper AI, building custom demos and the capabilities that close deals.

I like sitting between customers and engineering: understanding the real problem, then shipping something fast to solve it. Build fast, fail fast, learn fast.

Aside from work, I've spent three years volunteering as a basketball coach. I speak Catalan, Spanish, English and some Portuguese.
