"I am a researcher & creative coder who loves to experiment and design new ways of interaction among technology and people. My continuous goal is to make technology more human aware."

I hold a Telecommunications Engineering degree and a MSc on Cognitive Systems and Interactive Media (CSIM) from the University Pompeu Fabra of Barcelona. I have studied one year of the MSc program in Computer Science at the University of Bern and at the University of Fribourg within the Erasmus exchange program and I did a research stay on the Wireless Network System group at the Tokyo University of Sciences. I worked with Wireless Sensor Network technologies in a FP7 European project and worked as a Android programmer and interaction designer.

My current interests stay around of developing novel ways of collaborative interactions in public spaces where time, space and in general, context are key aspects. I like to create rapid-prototyping tools that help to speed up the creation process specifically related to mobile phones.

Apart that, I am interested as well in human emotions, in how the brain works, in data visualizations, new ways of interfacing with computers, photography, experimental cinema, more humanized architecture and really concerned about new ways of education. And even better if everything is seasoned with open source and free culture. Too many things isn’t it? It could be but somehow all of them are interconnected."
