About Me

I am an entrepreneur and educator from Argentina, a great country all adventurers should come by.
I beleive in empowering people through education and in connecting the world in a global society.

I started the first Coding Bootcamp of Argentina in 2017 (www.plataforma5.la) and since then I've been immersed in teaching and growing the company. We are helping people learn to code and enter the tech industry, changing their lives.

My philosophy is: be a good person, do what makes you happy and dont waste your life doing things you hate. there are many opportunities out there, you just got to look what makes you feel better. I personally believe that what makes you feel complete is love, but other people might think different, so just search your feelings and discover what makes you happy!
