A Proof of Concept for a Human Being.

Panama → SF → Moon

I'm a founder, builder, and explorer from Panama. I believe in learning by building and in starting before you feel ready. Right now I'm building infrastructure for the AI agent economy: the payment rails, compute layer, and financial tooling for a world where AI agents transact autonomously.

My first venture was at 8 or 9 years old. I built a website that aggregated Club Penguin gift codes and embedded a fake security camera to discourage copying. Self-taught, no tutorials. Just pure curiosity. By 12, I was the first and only 12-year-old in the history of the Olimpiada Panameña de Física. By 17, I was running a national esports organization from my bedroom during COVID.

The thread across everything I've done: find a frontier, build the organizing layer, make it bigger than expected, move on. Olympiads. Esports. Robotics. AI Agent Economy. The tools change. The pattern doesn't.

The tools change. The pattern doesn't.

I dropped out strategically. UTP wasn't ready for frontier tech, and full scholarships to schools that were weren't financially accessible. So I built my own curriculum: running a national esports org taught me operations, stakeholder management, and public performance. The VEX Robotics League taught me business development and institutional partnerships. The AI program gave me the technical depth. Combined with 3 hackathon wins in 2025, I arrived here with real operational context that most peers lack.

Long game: PhD at 40 in something space-related. Get selected for a moon mission. Not a credential play. Life architecture.

The Journey

Every chapter, built from scratch.

2008 – 2014
Origin

First Website at 8

Self-taught, pure curiosity

  • Built a Club Penguin gift codes aggregator with a fake embedded security camera
  • First code with no tutorials. Just raw exploration.
  • The beginning of a pattern: find a gap, build the thing that fills it
2015 – 2021
Olympiads

Academic Olympiads

Building at the intellectual frontier

  • First & only 12-year-old in the history of the Olimpiada Panameña de Física
  • Competed simultaneously in Math, Physics, Astronomy & Robotics
  • Attended 12th grade Physics classes as a 7th grader
  • Multiple Honorific Awards + Robotics medal
12years old at Physics Olympiad
2020 – 2022
Esports

National Esports Organization

Built Panama's broadcast infrastructure

  • Co-founded national esports org from bedroom during COVID, age 17
  • Built professional broadcast system replicating LEC/Worlds production quality using code + OBS
  • Twitch Partner. 300+ concurrent viewers, 5,000+ daily.
