Always exploring new places, ideas, and technologies

My Story

I'm an open-minded individual always looking for something new to explore—whether that's a country, a language, or an idea worth building. I like to move fast, stay curious, and immerse myself deeply in whatever I'm doing.

I work as a programmer and am in the early stages of building businesses here in Argentina. My days are a mix of coding, learning, meeting interesting people, and making things happen.

Outside of work, I run (I'm aiming for a marathon by the end of the year), take photos wherever I go, and keep chipping away at new languages. I'm always chasing the next challenge, and I plan to keep it that way.

Interests & Hobbies

Fitness & Health

My health is my top priority. I'm an avid gym-goer and run regularly, hoping to complete a marathon before the end of the year. I also enjoy cooking healthy, simple meals.

Rock Climbing

I see rock climbing as physical puzzle solving—it's the perfect intersection of mental and physical challenge.

Languages

I've spoken foreign languages since I was a kid and continue to learn new ones to this day. Read more about my language learning journey here.

Travel

Operating System

NixOSDeclarative configuration management

I run a comprehensive self-hosted infrastructure that gives me full control over my data and digital life. From file synchronization and media streaming to password management and note-taking, everything runs on my own hardware.

The setup uses ZFS for reliable storage with mirrored NVMe drives for the operating system and a large storage pool for media and data. NixOS provides a declarative approach to system configuration, making the entire infrastructure reproducible and maintainable.

Let's Work Together

I'm always interested in new opportunities and exciting projects. Let's discuss how we can create something amazing together.
