I’ve managed my family’s capital full time since January 2024. Before that I spent thirteen years in payroll and personnel administration: at NH Hotel Group, at the media group Vocento, running about 800 monthly payrolls at Alter Consultores Legales, and for 600 staff across five schools at Marianistas. Having worked within the largest operating expense lines gives me insight into what drives productivity gains and operating leverage in a company.

I’ve written for Seeking Alpha since 2019. I studied Labor Relations at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid. I work in Spanish and English, from Madrid.
