Miguel is a half-spanish, half-portuguese University professor that has always worked besides teaching (not that teaching is not work...). He is an Entrepreneur with a track-record of more than 15 years, and a former FMCG marketing and innovation manager with experience in several countries of Europe and America.
When he started his own career, and being a below-average student, he struggled first-hand the anxiety and frustration of the job search and hacked a way out of that. Since then he has been teaching, mentoring and coaching thousands of students, executives and founders in their career journeys, and along with his co-founders from Ungap Education, he has distilled the learnings of the most successful careers into a proprietary process - the "Meaningful Career Crafting Process" that is helping students build their career paths, personal brand and career search, so they can land their dream job and succeed in the marketplace.
Passionate about supporting talented people be the best versions of themselves and achieve their ultimate goals, Miguel has created, developed and empowered hundreds of teams, both as a corporate executive and as an Entrepreneurs. Having interviewed, recruited and developed many professionals in an international context, he has an holistic vision and a real-life experience about the job-market, recruitment process and career development.
Besides all of this, he volunteers in many social projects and still can find the time to enjoy life with his wife and three kids, in beautiful sunny Lisbon.
