I’m , an engineer turned product builder living in Mexico City. I co-founded trece so people stop leaving their health up to luck. Before that, four years at , first writing payments code, then shipping product. I still can’t help building side projects.

I’m a little obsessed with AI. I build with it every day, I’ve written about whose values it should hold, and yes, I asked it to paint me as a . But the place I think it matters most is healthcare, arguably more than software itself. Medical reasoning is becoming abundant, and the last mile of labs, pharmacies and doctors already exists. What’s missing is the connection between them. The future of healthcare is patient to agent, and that takes infrastructure. That’s what we’re building at trece.

    trece

    Co-founder

All of it connected to 500+ lab locations.
