Building companies that transform the way we work

For more than twenty years I have walked the path of entrepreneurship, innovation and company building. My original background is legal — I am a lawyer with a Master's in Business Law from Universidad Austral — but very early on I discovered that my true calling was to build: to identify problems worth solving and create solutions that generate real value.

Throughout this journey I have taken an active part in the entrepreneurial ecosystem, sharing experiences with founders, universities, angel investors, venture capital funds and organizations that drive innovation. That constant exchange of ideas, trends and learnings is part of how I understand growth and how I build companies.

As Co-Founder and Chief Commercial Officer of Naaloo I lead the company's growth strategy, positioning and regional expansion. My work is about connecting the real needs of SMBs with the evolution of the product, building long-term relationships with customers, partners and the entrepreneurial ecosystem to accelerate the adoption of technology and Artificial Intelligence in people management.

Technology that creates value

I have always been interested in how technology can simplify the life of organizations. I don't believe in innovation as an end in itself, but as a tool to remove complexity, automate processes and let people spend their time on work that truly creates value.

I follow closely the evolution of Artificial Intelligence, People Analytics, Organizational Culture, Talent Management and the Future of Work, because I am convinced that the organizations that integrate these capabilities will be the ones leading the coming years.

What motivates me

I enjoy connecting people and opportunities, learning continuously and being part of an ecosystem in transformation. I'm passionate about staying close to new technologies and to the trends redefining the future of organizations — and above all, about turning them into simple solutions that create real value.

One of my greatest motivations is that SMBs in every country where Naaloo operates can access technology that makes them more organized, efficient and competitive. When we strengthen thousands of SMBs, the impact goes beyond each company: employment, productivity, innovation and development opportunities multiply for society as a whole.

That triple-impact view — economic, human and social — is what I want to keep bringing to every project I build.

Looking ahead

We are living through an unprecedented transformation in the way we work. Artificial Intelligence is redefining how organizations operate, make decisions and develop talent.

My commitment is to keep driving that transformation from Naaloo, helping more and more SMBs adopt technology that makes their management simpler, smarter and more human.

I believe the future of work will belong to the organizations that know how to combine technology, culture and people to build more agile, more productive companies, better prepared for the challenges ahead.
