What inspired you to study abroad?
What inspired me to study abroad is learning from different people and learning about different cultures. Along with that gaining experience about the world, specially about the tech world. Learning a lot about the history of the place.
How is living in Barcelona?
Until now I have been enjoining a lot, I love the weather, to be honest I really enjoy the sun.
How do you see yourself in future?
In the future I see myself helping a lot of people, because my main passion is to be able to help old people, help them solve their problems. That is what I see myself doing in the future after completing my Master´s from Barcelona Technology School.
Are you developing new skills?
Yes, I am developing a lot of new skills. Before this I did not have a lot of experience about concepts like user research or persona journey. So basically, I am learning a lot of skills that come before the wireframing and prototyping. Which has been a really good experience for me.
Why would you recommend Barcelona Technology School?
I would recommend Barcelona Technology School to a person who has a more practical approach to the studies. That is what BTS mostly focus on, and that is how our assignments and projects have been. Which gives us a bit of a taste of a real world that we tend not have at other universities. So that is why I would recommend someone to come to Barcelona Technology School.
Is this time abroad impacting your life?
I think it was a right time for me to move abroad. It has impacted me a lot because I have to be independent on my own and it is something that I am really enjoying.
