About me

I started by asking how things work.

Mechatronics engineer, general manager of Cosmos Sistemas and Cosmos Media Group, host of Cosmos Tech and a maker since 2017. This is the long version.

As a kid I took apart fans, drills and video game consoles to understand what was inside. That curiosity led me in 2014 to study Mechatronics Engineering, which I saw then, and still see, as the engineering of the future.

I focused on 3D design, printing and manufacturing, plus circuits and electronics. In 2017 I bought my first 3D printer because the university's were always busy or broken, and I discovered I could create anything I imagined, whenever I wanted. I haven't stopped since: I learned to repair them, to design in SolidWorks, and today I use artificial intelligence to speed up the slow part, which was always designing, never printing.

In 2022 I took over as general manager of Cosmos Sistemas, the company my father founded in 1982. With the MBA I widened its focus from operations to marketing, people and finance: we grew from 5 to 15 team members and today we deliver national security and public institution projects. In 2026, Forbes Dominican Republic included me in its first 30 Under 30 list, alongside names like Juan Soto and Marileidy Paulino.

What drives me most is what I see at every talk: most young people plan to study law, accounting or marketing, and very few mention engineering or cybersecurity. I want them to discover that the future is printed, programmed and built. And that they can do it from here.

Timeline

  1. I start Mechatronics Engineering
    Convinced that robotics is the future.
  2. My first 3D printer
    The passion that now defines my projects and my talks is born.
  3. I found FJG Sports
    A shirt store from scratch. My first venture that worked, and it is still running.
  4. General Manager of Cosmos
    I graduate from PUCMM and take over my father's legacy.
  5. MBA, CSWA and Fuerzas Comando
    Master's at Barna, SolidWorks CSWA certification and a certificate of appreciation from the U.S. Army (SOCSOUTH) for the technology support to Fuerzas Comando 2023.

What I believe

Three ideas I repeat in every talk.

01

The future is printed today

Technology stops being abstract when you can touch it. That is why I bring 3D-printed towers, maps and parts to every talk.

02

Made from here

You can design, manufacture and build a tech business from the Dominican Republic. You do not have to leave to build.

03

Learn by taking things apart

Nobody is born knowing. I learned by breaking things, fixing them and asking. That curiosity is still my best tool.
