About

I'm a Colombian-Canadian founder based in Toronto. I started QPASA in 2017 as a single Instagram page and grew it into a group of five brands covering news, music, sports and culture for audiences in North America, Spain and Latin America.

My background is in product design and engineering. I'm an ex-IBMer from the Watson team, and I've worked on projects for Discovery Channel, Sun Life and RBC before going full time on QPASA. That mix of design, data and media is what I'm now applying to Soy Fundador and VitalHacking.
