About Me
I'm a Technical Project Manager and partner at 3Speak, a decentralized video platform on Hive blockchain. I oversee end-to-end QA processes for video hosting, payments, and community systems, ensuring platform stability, compliance, and optimal UX. I manage and optimize infrastructure across Hetzner, Cloudflare, and Wasabi S3, achieving over $550 in monthly savings.
I'm also the founder of Proyecto Aliento (since 2018), one of the most influential LATAM creator communities within the Hive ecosystem. I designed and implemented onboarding, mentorship, and curation programs that increased user retention and ecosystem participation.
I collaborate at Hive Creators as co-founder and consultant, providing strategic feedback on Web3 marketing initiatives. I also work at Distriator/CheckInWith as Project Manager and Technical Support, managing QA cycles and delivering Tier-2 support.
My technical expertise includes Linux/SSH, Nginx, Cloudflare, BunnyCDN, Wasabi S3, ZFS, IPFS, and Encoding/Transcoding (HLS/DASH). Bilingual Spanish/English (C1), I reside in Mexico and work remotely with global teams.

Skills & Expertise
7+ years leading high-availability platforms in video streaming, payments, and UGC ecosystems
I didn't follow a traditional academic path, but I've built my career through hands-on experience, curiosity, and continuous learning. I consider myself a naturally analytical and proactive person—someone who enjoys understanding how things work and finding practical solutions.
Since I was young, I've been drawn to technology. I often took things apart to understand their mechanisms, and on computers I explored every menu, help section, and tool to learn how to use them better. That curiosity eventually turned into a drive to build, experiment, and improve user experiences.
I did attend university for a period and took several classes, but I realized I learned best through direct practice. From there, I began creating my own projects, researching, writing, testing ideas, and collaborating with others. Over time, this led me to develop a combination of creative and technical skills that I continue to refine.
Today, I focus on learning new technologies, especially AI tools and modern development practices, while staying adaptable in a rapidly evolving industry. My goal is to keep improving, contribute to high-quality projects, and approach every challenge with a problem-solving mindset.
