26 years old young enthusiastic guy, and a very diplomatic weirdo.

Working now at Aalto University's Design Factory, in Finland. Yes, up there in the North where is cold and cloudy most of the days!

In 2022 he became a Faculty Champion for Universidad del Desarrollo and now had the pleasure of becoming an UIGuide!

Born in Talcahuano, Chile. Good experiences and bad experiences have been part of his short life. His life changed in 2010, with the earthquake and tsunami his family lost everything. Notwithstanding that, life has showed him to see all those problems as an opportunity.

He decided to start his business studies at Universidad del Desarrollo after failing his basketball professional recruitment at a local club. Immediately he started to develop new projects and business ideas. That's how he founded his first company: Mr. Tie Chile. He now helps little entrepreneurs and give them space into his platform.

He beliefs in the power of life, the power of attraction: what you think you will get, you will get. He beliefs in that don't matter who you are, if you are big or small, we can all make changes.
I think life is a short experience, it's your call to enjoy and learn!


"small people at small towns doing small things can change the world"
