"Each step is a step upward." — Marco Herrera
I'll be honest: I was never the top student in my class… but I wasn't the worst either (there were always a few who struggled more—ha!). Scroll down and I'll share the schools and institutions that shaped my academic side. Values and life lessons? Those came from many places.
PRIMARY EDUCATION
Institution: Alejandro Larrea School (1981–1987). Parish of San José de Minas.
SECONDARY EDUCATION
Institution: San José de Minas Fiscal High School (1988–1992). Parish of San José de Minas.
Institution: UETEMM (1993). In the parish of San Antonio de Pichincha.

…And in 1996 I returned to Eloy Alfaro National High School to complete my High School Diploma.

P.S.: I earned my National Tour Guide certification (ID P-UIO-NAC-653) in 2017. Before that—since 2005—I had already been guiding informally.
P.S. 2: I also hold a Professional Driver's License (Type C). It may not strictly belong here, but it's useful to know.
