# Hi, I'm Vicente

I design and build agentic systems — software that reasons, plans, and acts on its own. Part engineer, part tinkerer, wholly obsessed with making machines genuinely useful.

## About

I've spent the last few years building at the edge of what language models can do — turning raw model calls into reliable, tool-using agents that do real work instead of just talking about it.

My approach is simple: small, composable pieces; tight feedback loops; and a healthy skepticism of anything that only works in a demo. I care about the boring parts — evals, guardrails, observability — because that's what makes agents trustworthy.

I'm also a computational neuroscience enthusiast and researcher, drawn to the frontier where neural systems, cognition, and modern technologies start explaining each other.

## Principles

The same vectors show up in agents that scale and in the life I'm trying to build: stay curious, preserve freedom, remove noise, keep rhythm, verify against reality.

> My mission is to empower everyone, starting with myself, to become autonomous: able to resolve their lives and problems from their own skills, judgment, and resources.

### Agent vectors

  • - Frontier curiosity

    Stay pathologically curious about what the current map misses. Systems scale when they keep probing reality's edges.

  • - Reality > speculation

    Start from observed state: read the file, inspect the output, reproduce the behavior, then decide.

  • - Smallest complete move, make it exist first

    Solve the real problem with the least necessary complexity. No decorative abstractions, no scope drift. Make things exist first, you can't iterate on something that doesn't exist.

### Life vectors

  • Autonomy

    Help people, starting with myself, resolve life with their own skills and resources instead of depending on external permission.

    • agency
    • self-reliance
    • skills

  • Curiosity

    An abnormal appetite for questions keeps me near the frontiers of reality, where new systems, ideas, and people become visible first.

    • frontiers
    • questions
    • novelty

  • Freedom

    Own my time, location, priorities, and people. Without freedom, every other value becomes conditional.

    • time
    • location
    • choice

  • Independence + leverage

    Build assets and systems that keep me detached from jobs I do not own, while managing risk instead of gambling it all.

    • ownership
    • 80/20
    • risk
