Academic Vocation

Throughout my life my main sources of inspiration have been my parents, both of whom are Spanish professors (they are now happily retired after serving the Panamanian Youth for so many years). I grew up in a home filled with books, intense dialogue and much intellectual challenge. To work as a professor, to do research and to inquire for the truth, to enjoy intense intellectual discourse and to teach our Youth, this is the vocation that I inherited from both of them; to me this is the family business. Today my parents are retired, while my brother Hector and my sister Lorena are an industrial engineer and a public administrator, respectively. They all live in Panama City. We are all extremely close, and this has been so throughout the different phases of life.
