Bio

Hey there! I'm Ezequiel from Las Piedras, Uruguay. My journey in education began right here, as I traversed through school and high school, laying the foundation for the path ahead.

After high school, I embarked on a transformative two-year voluntary mission, which instilled in me a deep sense of purpose and community. This experience fueled my desire for personal growth and positive change.

Fast forward to today, and I find myself in the heart of my academic pursuit at the Universidad de Montevideo, where I'm diligently honing my skills as a Civil Engineer. I'm currently in my second year, thriving on challenges that require innovative problem-solving, meticulous planning, and effective time management.

Beyond my academic journey, I'm a voracious reader, an aspiring entrepreneur, and a devoted advocate of personal development. I'm passionate about setting ambitious goals, crafting actionable plans, and inspiring others to realize their full potential. From delving into entrepreneurship literature to mastering personal finance, I'm committed to continuous learning.

But there's more to me than the academic and professional realm. I'm also a dedicated volunteer, engaging in various roles ranging from clerk to teacher. This commitment to giving back to the community fuels my desire to make a positive impact on the lives of those around me.

When I'm not engrossed in books and projects, you can find me running a small business, indulging in design projects, or simply enjoying quality time with friends. Life's journey is all about growth, connections, and shared experiences, and I'm excited to make the most of every opportunity.
