Juan is an economics undergraduate student who has been granted a scholarship at UCEMA. He is a native Spanish speaker and fluent in English. For the sole purpose of learning, he has worked in the private security and tourism industries. However, his interest in grass-root philosophical discussion has taken him to broadly study the Austrian School of Economics and the epistemological foundations of the science he practices. Hence, Juan has become an active member of the Mises Seminary, which has already exposed him to a higher level of intellectual debate. Moreover, outside of the academic field, he has developed both resilience after many years of high-altitude mountaineering, as well as empathy through the teaching of equine therapy and dressage.
