<p>I grew up in Conil de la Frontera, a small town on the Cádiz coast (Spain). I studied medicine at the University of Granada, where I got a lot more than just a degree - I volunteered, played sports through the faculty, and really grew as a person along the way. Those years were also when I fell in love with Otorhinolaryngology and led me to become an ENT resident at Hospital Universitario Infanta Sofía, where I have the chance to grow as physician, surgeon and researcher every day.</p>
