• Topics of interest: activism, geography in general, politics, geopolitics, Mexico, Latin America, North America, Airbus aircraft and italian singer Laura Pausini. I also love to design and create images to illustrate Wikipedia.
• I contribute in: Mexico-related articles, Flag of Mexico, Monterrey, North American-related articles, Americas (terminology), Volaris
• What I love of Wikipedia: The opportunity to donate my free time to improve the overall project, making friends from all over the world.
• What I hate about Wikipedia: How a single bad-faithed user can disrupt an article and nothing can be done immediatly, how certain administrators are risk-averse when making decisions, systemic-bias.

I'm a Wikipedia enthusiast from the city of Monterrey, located to the northeast of the country. As a patriot Mexican I want the world to really know my country, the present-day Mexico, especially because Hollywood cliches tend to give people a very bad, totally wrong idea of what Mexico is. I like writing in Wikipedia and it has become my main hobby. I'm here to contribute in topics related with Mexico's history, culture, values and political status in Latin America and the world. I also enjoy writing about North America, Latin America and about geography-related articles.

I'm currently a full-time activist in my city, working with the organization Frente Nuevo León.

As a web and graphical designer, I have the skills to produce high quality images and graphics, so I have found myself creating maps and taking pictures to illustrate several articles... and I'm enjoying it a lot!

Thanks for reading!
