Student in Madrid, España

I am moved by passion. That is the only true I can show.

When I was 17, I found out I could express myself by playing music but also notice that by expressing me people could also have fun and feel free, so I started djing at my hometown, Pontevedra.

At my 18 my passion move up, it needed to find others ways of show her up so I took me to create a little business. My partner and I found a clothing startup, that not only showed us how important is to work hard but also let us to feel a little of the real world. This same year I found the greatest of the passion, economics.

Studying economics had drive me to learn how the world works, also to understand more about my own behaviour and it gives me the tools to help others. Motivated by this view and with the help of some classmates we found an student association, Redimiento Marginal. Our main aim is to give other economics students different views, alternatives to what is currently taught in classrooms, not because we think is incorrect but to promote critical and disruptive thinking.

Thanks to economics and econometric lessons, I started to introduce myself in the world of Big Data and programming in R. So I am currently looking for some experience in this field.
