Über mich
Engineer at heart and by degree. I stop to think what is the right question, which variables can be measured and I can't get enough of the bliss of contemplating a neatly-solved problem. As a teenager, I got my first hands-on experience at a local workshop. As soon as I moved to Buenos Aires, I started looking for work experience to mix with my studies. After a few failed interviews, I started working for Martos. Slowly but steadily, I learnt, progressed and worked in what would be an enlightening and fulfilling experience. In 2019, I received an offer by Toyota to join the new Gazoo R&D division. I relished the opportunity and joined the design team. I have seen Toyota's values reflected on the great people I was able to team up with, and this has transformed the way I see my daily life. Personally, I led the integration of 3D printing to the division. Now, after taking a break in my career, I look at uncertainty in the eyes and I am prepared to take on the next challenge.
