Daniel Alejandro Cabrera Zegarra

Fundraising coach @ LALA - Latin American Leadership Academy

About

I’m a learning lover who lives in an epistemological crisis about what is right 24/7. I ask questions all the time and genuinely enjoy learning from people who are passionate or experts at what they do. I’m from Peru, with strong interests in subjects such as philosophy, economics, finance, and especially mathematics. I love engaging with problems that challenge the mind—particularly those that require deep analysis and creative thinking—and I dream of doing a research that can contribute to make the future more exciting. Right now, I’m obsessed with applying mathematics to the real world and modeling uncertainty through equations. Outside academics, I’ve been a gym rat since October 2024, and I’m currently close to benching 225 lbs.
