I began as a teacher. Before long, I was more interested in how my students learned than in what I was supposed to teach them, and that question has shaped everything since.

At a PreK-12 school network in Mexico, I designed a digital and STEM curriculum and built partnerships with MIT Media Lab, NASA and High Tech High. At One Laptop per Child, the MIT Media Lab-born initiative that put more than three million learning laptops in children’s hands, I went from leading the program in Mexico to opening new countries in Africa, leading global business development and, later, serving as CEO. I negotiated with ministries, built partnerships across 40+ countries and learned, at national scale, what makes technology an instrument for thinking rather than consumption.

In 2016 I started Desescolarizados, a Spanish-language community on self-directed learning, which grew into Edularity: a learning-innovation hub with a community of 45,000+ families in 40 countries, facilitator and postgraduate programs, and DigitalMente, a program on how the mind learns in the age of AI.

Today I work as a Senior Consultant at EDT&Partners, advising on education strategy, go-to-market and AI adoption across Latin America, and I keep studying how humans and AI learn.
