Curious, open minded and adventurous. I love to discover new things and take some detours from the main road. Art, Nature, Music and Food are reminders of our need to be gentle and kind to each other and to never forget to be amazed.

I worked for six years on immigrants human rights in the US, so I have all sorts of stories and even though I've chosen to still believe in humankind. I am a music junkie so I will always prefer any place with a live band no matter what genre. I also love to dance, (please do not assume I am good at it)

PHILOSOPHY

I strongly believe that my purpose in life is to change the tiny bit of world i can see, to help other people make their dreams come true.

I believe that to SERVE GRANDLY is the ultimate purpose of every human being.

(This might look like cliché in CS but i truly rely on this with my heart and mind) I see myself as a traveler; life and traveling are mirroring metaphors and the road is there to remind us that change is the only constant and the only souvenirs that you are allowed to take are the experiences. Be kind with everyone on the road.

1. Be impeccable with your words
2. Do not take anything personally.
3. Do not make assumptions
4. Always do the most you can
