Originally born in Argentina, I obtained my undergraduate degree in mathematics at Universidad de Buenos Aires, by publishing a thesis dissertation under Dr. Matilde Lalín's supervision on the topic of Elliptic Surfaces.
I got my MS and Ph.D. at am a Ph. D. candidate at The Ohio State University's math department under Dr. Jennifer Park's supervision. I was awarded the Presidential Fellowship, the most prestigious academic recognition that can be achieved as a graduate student at The Ohio State University. My MS and Ph.D. research was in the fields of Computational Number Theory, Algebraic Geometry, and Model Theory.

Curriculum Vitae
Teaching Experience
I am currently volunteering to mentor high-school students from the Colegio Internacional Levante (Valencia, Spain) for the International Baccalaureate Higher Level “Analysis and Approaches” examination.
I have given occasional volunteer sessions at The Run the Race Center from the Brian Muha Foundation.
From 2021 to 2025 I held a position as a Graduate Teaching Associate at OSU, in which I taught single variable and multivariable calculus, and linear algebra.
In 2019 I was a Teaching Assistant at Universidad de San Andrés, where I taught multivariable calculus.
From 2018 to 2019 I was a Teaching Assistant at Universidad de Buenos Aires, where I taught linear algebra, discrete mathematics, and numerical calculus.
During 2014 I initiated a math workshop in my high school, in which I offered training classes for math olympiads.
Miscellaneous interests
I am extremely passionate about math education, and have received various teaching awards at OSU (see my CV). I always hope and pray to be a good influence for my students, for the sake of transmitting the beauty of math to the minds of those who are curious enough to explore it.
My academic non-mathematical interests are natural theology and apologetics (my favorite writer is Gary Michuta), while my personal mission in life is to continuously grow up spiritually to serve my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, under the guidance and intercession of the Most Blessed Virgin Mary, to Whom I'm consecrated.
I have a Twitter/X profile where I am either sharing solutions to math puzzles, or praising God. And I have a YouTube channel where I share a little bit of my spiritual Catholic side and production.
Oh, and I am the biggest enemy of pineapple on pizza.
