Career Coaching
For the past 20+ years I have been building the career I dreamt. I went to university and got an MSc in Computer Science that I thought would unlock all the doors. It didn't. In fact, nobody has ever asked me for that piece of paper. Ever. I went on a transformative journey and moved from Spain to Finland just because it was the complete opposite of what I was used to. I wanted a challenge and get out of my comfort zone. I have done stand-up comedy, I've spoken at conferences in front of thousands of people and believe it or not, I'm quite the introvert. I've got a decent job that paid fairly well and decided to quit because it didn't match my ethics so I took on another job that paid less but made me happier. I worked on a startup that went bankrupt during the Christmas break and I knew about it when my card got declined because the salary didn't come through. I have built products and apps used by millions across the world. I have successfully grown teams and mentored people that weren't quite sure how to professionally grow. I always wanted to be a pilot and 7 years ago I finally got my private pilot license, something that I never thought I would be able to afford. Now, I even have my own plane!
