More about me!

I am 30-something Venezuelan who has lived in several countries, including China, Ireland and Spain. I now call Barcelona home, where I enjoy the sunshine and Mediterranean sea.

My passions revolve around coffee, nature, personal development, eastern medicine, notebooks, philosophical discussions on how to overcome the never-ending discussions between left and right, and more boring stuff. I deeply care about the world and thrive when I am intensely solving complex problems. I believe that ideas hold the biggest power over humanity.

On my professional experience...

I hold a BA in International Relations and a Master degree in Intelligence Analysis. I have worked as a researcher/investigator/intelligence manager for big tech companies and start ups, and have also done consulting work for the public sector, a.k.a governments. Recently co-founded my consulting firm on emerging industries in Latin America.

But what exactly have I done, you may ask

Unfortunately, I have signed many NDAs. But in a nutshell, my work has always consisted on shedding light on what the hell is going on- connecting the dots, spotting trends, identifying threats, risks, and opportunities.

I have investigated criminal networks, misinformation campaigns, data governance, apps (yes, many apps), cutting-edge tech such as artificial intelligence, Web3, metaverse, as well as several types of regulations (on medical cannabis, AI, data privacy, sustainability...) and the list goes on and on...

I probably have written at least 1000 reports and have built countless of processes to gather and analyze information, all of which, I regrettably remember in detail.

My career path has been fulfilling and gratifying but starting The Intel Diary is by far the most exciting project I have done. Can't wait to learn about how the technology is shaping our world together!

If you have read this far- thank you! these certainly aren't the most useful facts to learn. But if you are into bios, hopefully this one didn't put you to sleep.
