Who am I?

Computing and AI Specialist

I consider myself a specialist, even though over the years I have become a generalist. My interest has shifted from initially being focused on Artificial Intelligence field to adjacent ones related to Data Engineering, High Performance Computing or even Data Warehousing due to necessity. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to play several roles that have given me a holistic view.

I have had the chance to share my experience professionally, lecturing to different audiences about topics such as: Big Data, Artificial intelligence, Data Protection and Privacy Enhancing Technologies and Cloud adoption among others. I am currently focused on Unconventional Computing and how it can help boost the next revolution.
