About Me

My family is originally from the Huasteca region of Mexico, but I grew up in the Pleasant Grove area of Dallas, Texas. I got into programming in my senior year of high school, where I built a pomodoro timer app for the AP Computer Science exam. This experience solidified my love for programming and led me to pursue a degree in Computer Science at Texas A&M University. Today, I work as a software developer at Publicis Sapient, where I contribute to building innovative digital solutions for our clients.

In my spare time, you can usually find me cooking authentic indigenous food, studying design & philosophy, riding my bike, or teaching my newtgat tricks.

My Purpose

My goal is to help people follow their bliss. Three beliefs shaped this:

  1. Meaning is created. We give our lives meaning through how we choose to live1.
  2. Joy is a signal. Following what makes us feel most blissful can lead us toward a more fulfilling life2.
  3. Fulfillment is shared. We become who we are through our relationships, communities, and experiences with other people3.

See how I put these beliefs into practice in my framework.
