About
Design Engineer with extensive experience shaping user-centered strategies, leading multidisciplinary teams, and delivering intuitive, accessible digital products across healthcare, fintech, and edtech.
Skilled in design and engineering. Adept at collaborating closely with teams and contributing directly to UI implementation across the full product lifecycle. Known for driving clarity, structure, and consistency across complex product ecosystems.
Long before design systems became the norm, there was just a blank stylesheet and the challenge of making something beautiful out of nothing. From co-organizing CSS Conf Argentina to teaching fundamentals at university level, a deep obsession with the cascade style sheets, specificity, and the art of building things that look exactly right has been a constant thread throughout the work.
CSS it's a craft, it's art, it's design.
