La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina
Being part of several projects and initiatives in different organizations have helped me to extend my insight. I also had the opportunity to live in different regions of Argentina and learn a little their realities. All this led me to choose the career of Industrial Engineering. I am convinced that the specializations are isolating us. We need more people with systemic and multidisciplinary vision. Added to teamwork, this will help us to break down barriers and be collectively more prepared to face new challenges.
I started to organize TEDxPaseodelBosque with a multidisciplinary team of students. The first TEDx event in La Plata´s City.
This will be my third year working at Solaer Ingenieria, a small engineering company with an aeronautical vision. As a CAD Designer for energy, aerospace and metallurgical industries. Before this work, in late 2009 I was an intern at INVAP. I worked in the SAC-D sattelite project, now in orbit. In the area of destructive testing of structures and mechanisms.
I started differents projects, in robotics, health, manufacturing and internet. In 2011 I created social space called "Soy de Dina Huapi". That is bringing lot of more and better communication to the patagonic town near Bariloche where I lived, Dina Huapi. The mission is to transform a town into a community by giving voice to the neibours.
I consider myself a person interested in learning as long as be shared with passion. Entrepreneurial spirit of all things.
Currently i am participating in different organizations, traveling, learning and finding my place.
