México - Chapter II

Shaped through
experience.

From running my own guitar instruction practice at 13 to navigating real business operations - Mexico forged resourcefulness and the entrepreneurial instinct that drives everything I do.

London - Chapter III

Built a global
perspective.

Exposure to one of the world's great financial capitals refined how I see markets, capital, and opportunity at scale. Discipline and precision became non-negotiable.

Miami - Chapter IV

Focused on
building forward.

University of Miami. Finance & Entrepreneurship. Mergers, acquisitions, and the relentless pursuit of value creation. This is where ambition meets execution.

The Story

Not a resume.
A direction.

In His Own Words

Click any node to explore

Born in Argentina, formed in Mexico, and now building in Miami - my path has never been linear, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Every chapter added a new dimension to how I think about business, risk, and people.

At the University of Miami Herbert Business School, I'm pursuing Finance with a Minor in Entrepreneurship - not because it was the expected path, but because I believe the future belongs to those who understand capital and create value with intention.

I've worked inside a global duty-free retailer navigating Latin American luxury markets, supported M&A operations, and built community through sport and leadership. My work is defined by analytical rigor, cultural fluency, and an instinct for what moves people and markets.

I want to be the person in the room who understands both the numbers and the people behind them - a trusted advisor at the intersection of capital markets and Latin American growth.

My edge is fluency: across cultures, languages, and disciplines. I move between a spreadsheet and a strategy conversation without losing the thread.

I am building toward any firm serious about Latin America - in wealth management, M&A, or corporate finance - that wants someone who doesn't need a map to navigate it.

Core Values

01 Integrity

Every number I touch, every conversation I have - honesty is non-negotiable. In finance, trust is the only currency that compounds.

02 Growth

Intellectually, professionally, personally. I believe complacency is the enemy of excellence. Every day is a chance to compound.

03 Discipline

Built on the rugby pitch, reinforced through illness, applied everywhere. Showing up when it's hard is the only version of discipline that matters.

04 Global Curiosity

Three countries, four languages absorbed, countless perspectives collected. I am genuinely comfortable in rooms I have never been in before.

05 Entrepreneurial Spirit

I built a guitar practice from zero at 10 years old. I designed a beverage brand from a gym bag. The bias is always toward building - never waiting.

06 Excellence

Not perfection - that is a trap. Excellence means raising the standard every single time I sit down to work, regardless of who is watching.

Beyond the Résumé

Life outside
the office.

Rugby pitches, guitar strings, city streets across three continents. The résumé tells part of the story - this is the rest.
