Rafael Ramirez Serrano

BSc Computer Science, EPFL

I'm passionate about entrepreneurship, automation engineering, and building projects that make a real impact. Outside of teaching, I enjoy exploring startups, particularly those applying technology to event management, restaurants, and gastronomy, and I'm always looking for ways to turn ideas into reality. I also care deeply about community initiatives and have led projects promoting mental health awareness, blood donation, and volunteer engagement. I hope to inspire young people to stay curious, take initiative, and see technology as a powerful tool for solving real-world problems.
