The Founder
Software engineer. Patient zero.
The first test subject for everything Astrolabe Labs builds.
Like a lot of people, I spent my twenties chasing freedom — the kind that felt like it lived at the bottom of a drink. The nights were good. The feeling was real. But the direction was wrong.
In 2012, a drunk driving arrest became the moment everything shifted. I put the glass down and started looking for what I was actually thirsty for.
The search took me through books — The Alchemist, The Power of Now, Conversations with God, the Bhagavad Gita, the Bible. Not religion. A search for what people across every culture and century kept pointing at and calling God.
Then retreats. Mountains in Colorado. Intensive emotional workshops in Austin. Years of learning what fear actually feels like in the body. What love feels like. How to tell the difference when you’re inside it.
By 2019 I was writing about it in Spanish — Creación Consciente — for my people. “El camino es más importante que el destino.” The journey matters more than the destination.
By 2026, after 12 years of inner work, I built the initial EQ Flow prototype in 9 days.
Not because it was easy. Because the work was already done.

The Origins
Seven years before EQ Flow existed, its creator was writing the same framework as a Spanish-language blog called Creación Consciente.
“Working with personality requires two things: a Vision — deciding what life you want to experience. And knowledge of your current emotional patterns.”
“Donde Vivimos” — May 2019
→ Vision Workshop + Check-Ins“When one wants or desires something, one is aligned with fear. The things that came to you easily came from love — curiosity, fun. That’s how they found you.”
“Lo que quiero se aleja” — October 2019
→ Fear / Love Spectrum“Your thoughts created your current circumstances. Change requires changing your thoughts — and the emotions that give life to those thoughts.”
“Como Cambiar Nuestras Circunstancias” — May 2019
→ The Internal LoopPatient Zero
Every product at Astrolabe Labs is validated on the founder first. The health protocol, the phenotype system, the supplement engine, the cognitive twin — all tested on himself before anyone else sees them. “If you won’t take what you’re selling, you’re not selling medicine. You’re selling hope.”
I would like to express deep gratitude through these words — to my parents, for giving me the beautiful gift called life. To my teachers and mentors, who taught me to navigate it. And to the friends who were always there, ready to support.
