Hi! I'm Iván. I'm an AI & Software Engineer currently based in Madrid, but I was born and raised in Isla de Margarita, Venezuela (take a look if you'd like the Wikipedia entry).
Interests
In my free time, I like to play some sports, see movies and to be around with my hometown friends.
Fun facts
I'm not a enjoyer of old movies, or songs for that matter, but I'm beginning to take a hang of it.
Currently learning to dance Salsa!
I love reading about history, journalism, politics, economics and things about how our world works.
My favorite dish is my grandma's lasagna :)
