«All our experiences merge into our personality. Everything that has happened to us is an ingredient».
Malcolm Little
Who we are as individuals is shaped by all the things we have lived through. Each experience, whether good or bad, is like an ingredient that mixes together to make us unique. Thus, everything that has happened to us in life combines to form who we are.
In my case, every success, every challenge overcome, every mistake made, and every joy experienced have become the experiences that have shaped me. Looking back, I see how all the pieces of my story have merged to shape this new project.
I am a Psychologyst
At 16, many of us face the crossroads of choosing our path in life. For me, the choice was clear: I wanted to be a psychologist. From an early age, I was always intrigued by how the mind works, the complexities of human relationships, and the mysteries behind our behaviors. This choice was not only a ‘calling’ to satisfy my own curiosity but also a way to contribute and help others.
My journey led me to the Autonomous University of Madrid (UAM), where I immersed myself fully in the fascinating field of psychology. It was there that I truly discovered my passion and particular affinity for child and educational psychology.
Upon completing my degree, the opportunity arose to expand my knowledge in experiential psychomotor therapy. This approach provided me with a unique perspective by integrating the physical and emotional dimensions of individuals, enriching my understanding of how bodily experiences influence psychological well-being.
Since then, my professional journey has been a continuous exploration and learning, guided by the conviction that understanding the complexity of the mind and contributing to the development of others is a rewarding and valuable task.

I was a nursery school teacher
During my third year of college, I had the fortune to embark on another experience thanks to a teacher who gave me the opportunity to intern at a nursery school. To my surprise, this educational environment stood out for embracing innovative concepts that, at the time, were considered unthinkable in conventional education. Educational partnerships, the Montessori method, project-based work, and free exploration, among others, were pillars of the curriculum in this avant-garde space.
After juggling this enriching work with the completion of my degree for two years, I decided to remain immersed in this experience for another five years. During this time, I not only solidified my theoretical knowledge but also ‘learned’ invaluable lessons through daily interaction with children aged 0 to 3. This prolonged immersion allowed me to enrich my professional perspective and refine my practical skills, strengthening my commitment to education that goes beyond conventional boundaries.
Every day, immersed in the dynamics of the nursery school, I witnessed how the application of these pedagogical approaches not only stimulated the comprehensive development of the little ones but also left a positive impact on my own formation as a professional in child and educational psychology. This period not only translated into a phase of ‘learning’ but also into a constant immersion that shaped my approach and strengthened my dedication to education that fosters growth and autonomy from the earliest years of life.

I am a coach
At 10, I discovered the exciting world of handball. This sport not only became an integral part of my personal growth but also served as a vehicle for valuable teachings, instilling fundamental values such as responsibility, effort, and solidarity. The court became a field of constant learning, where each game and training session offered me life lessons.
The passion that handball sparked in me did not fade over time but evolved. Today, I find myself immersed in the world of handball from another perspective: that of a coach and school director. This experience has allowed me not only to share my knowledge and love for the sport but also to continue my own learning by interacting with groups of different ages.
In the role of coach, I have absorbed the different ways of being and relating of people at different stages of their lives, even in informal contexts off the playing field. This immersion has provided me with a deeper understanding of group psychology and dynamics, enriching my perspective and skills in leadership.
Furthermore, being a coach is not only about teaching the game itself but also about delving into the concerns and questions of parents. This aspect adds an additional layer of understanding of the importance of sport in the development of young people and the relevance of their involvement in the family context.

I am writer
Writing has always been one of my passions. For a period of my life, I have had the valuable opportunity to collaborate with renowned digital magazines such as Guía Infantil, Ser Padres, or Baby Radio. These platforms became my springboard towards more ambitious goals, providing me with a space to share experiences and knowledge about parenting and child development.
Over time, this trajectory took a new turn when the Libsa publishing house opened its doors to make me a writer. This opportunity not only represented a significant milestone in my career but also the possibility of capturing my experiences in a more extensive and profound way. With each word, I aspire to reach a wider audience in the hope that my experiences can help in the growth and formation of others.
This experience of becoming an author is proving to be an enriching journey, allowing me to share not only theoretical knowledge but also life lessons and personal perspectives.
Each work stands as a testimony to my commitment to continuous learning and the transmission of experiences that can ‘resonate’ in the lives of those who read them. It is a privilege and a responsibility that I assume with dedication, hoping to contribute to the growth and understanding of those who delve into my writings.

And, above all, I am a Father
The experience of parenthood, a chapter intertwined with my roles as a psychologist and handball coach, adds a unique and challenging dimension to my life. Daily, I find myself navigating through complicated situations that demand management and conflict resolution skills. Although my training and experiences have been valuable pillars, they are not always sufficient in the face of the challenges that parenthood presents to me.
Like any parent, I face moments when, despite knowing theoretically what is appropriate, I ask my children, especially the eldest, for things they are not yet ready for. This discrepancy between expectations and capabilities generates frustration both in them and in me, creating obstacles that sometimes hinder our enjoyment of the parenting process.
This experience stands as an incomparable, distinct experience from those I have had throughout my life. I acknowledge that, despite my training and knowledge, parenthood confronts me with my own limitations and challenges me to be a better father. It is a constant reminder of the importance of lifelong education, not only from a professional perspective but also as a parent.
The relationship with my two children proves to be an endless source of learning. Although I am their guide in many aspects, their message is clear: we, as parents, are the ones in constant learning. This revelation not only reinforces the idea that parenthood is a shared journey but also highlights the need to adapt and evolve alongside them.
Undoubtedly, this journey, from the perspective of parenthood, despite its challenges, promises infinite ‘riches’.
