Also in UTEC, Francisco works as the Product Engineer of UTEC Ventures, which is UTEC's startup accelerator and incubator.

Outside of UTEC, Francisco is the CTO of CreaCode, an edtech startup that gives coding classes to kids and teens, offering paid workshops that help fund their volunteering branch, aimed at young girls from low income areas. Francisco's job is to develop and maintain the different web projects that they have, and also ensure the quality of the curriculum. Francisco doesn't plan to leave CreaCode any time soon, as he believes this job is very closely related to his mission in life.
As a University Innovation Fellow, most of Francisco's contribution to his local ecosystem comes through his participation in SpinOut UTEC and UTEC Ventures. This allows him to collaborate with other universities and local startups to incentivize students to pursue entrepreneurial opportunities.
In his spare time, Francisco loves playing soccer (he was part of his secondary school's soccer team). He also likes playing videogames and is always improving his skills developing them.
