Hi, I’m Juan Carlos

I am a tech leader building tools for clear thinking. I’ve directed award-winning documentaries, founded a climate action nonprofit, and develop healthcare solutions. I transform complexity into clarity through practical frameworks. Some say I’m just another desert-dwelling polymath with a meditation habit. Others say my models helped them escape the matrix of confused thinking. Decide for yourself.

quickly grasp the model’s core concept

And an Example

A real-world scenario showing
how this model works in practice.
