About Francisco Hernández

Francisco Hernández (Fran) is the COO of Moonshot Partners, a product studio based in London that helps entrepreneurs and startups build and scale tech ventures. With 16+ years as an operator inside companies, he has led teams and projects across Latin America and Europe, working with fintech, edtech, and proptech startups, as well as product and software development firms.

His core expertise spans AI transformation for executives — automating workflows and building internal tools — digital product development from concept to launch, operations and systems design, and growth marketing. He is an ICF Certified Coach specializing in career transitions and strategic decisions, and an AI educator and consultant who helps non-technical people build practical projects and workflows with AI.

Fran is the founder and host of "Becoming Yourself," a podcast about personal transformation and self-development. His other projects include AI Coders Club, Venegram, and explorandoconfran — a reflection of his wide-ranging curiosity and commitment to building things that matter.

His philosophy is direct: "Most execution problems are not about strategy. They are about clarity." And: "Ideas don't create outcomes. Systems do. I help build those systems." It's an approach that shapes everything from how he runs operations at Moonshot to how he coaches individuals navigating major life decisions.

Based in Mexico City and working globally, Francisco brings a rare combination of operator experience, coaching depth, and technical fluency to his work — and to his writing about the city he calls home.

About their perspective

Francisco writes about CDMX with the eye of someone who has spent 16 years inside companies, building systems and leading teams across two continents. He believes most execution problems are about clarity — and that the best neighborhoods, like the best products, reward people who pay attention.
