Digital Government & AI Governance
Strategy to Execution · Chevening Scholar at UCL · Former General Director, Buenos Aires City Government & National Director, Argentine Presidency
I work at the intersection of government, data, and AI — designing systems that make public institutions more effective and accountable. Currently completing an MSc in Data Science and Public Policy at UCL (Chevening Scholar) and contributing to UNDP's Digital, AI and Innovation Hub on DPI Safeguards for Latin America.

Led integrated evaluation and reform of Buenos Aires City's social protection portfolio — 120 programmes across 6 agencies. Included clustering analysis to identify overlaps, elimination of duplications, redesign of eligibility criteria, and implementation of a centralised subsidy management model (ABM) to unify targeting and administration across the system.
Led the evidence-based institutional reform process at the Argentine Presidency that resulted in 9 presidential decrees on regulatory simplification, organisational restructuring, and efficiency in the national cultural sector.

Conferences, forums, and policy events
I work at the intersection of government operations, data systems, and AI policy. My career has moved between designing public management systems at scale and producing applied research that informs how governments should deploy digital technology responsibly.
As General Director of Monitoring & Evaluation at Buenos Aires City Government, I built the city's citizen feedback infrastructure from the ground up — integrating perception surveys, operational data, and AI-assisted analysis into a system that now shapes budget and service decisions across millions of residents. As National Director of Evaluation and Citizen Feedback at Argentina's Presidency, I led the evaluation of federal social programmes and drove registry interoperability across 12 national agencies.
I hold a Chevening Scholarship for my MSc at UCL, am a Hanns Seidel Foundation Scholar, and a member of Chatham House and Goodenough College, London. I am also a former President of the Global Shapers Hub Rosario (World Economic Forum) and recipient of the Freedom of the City of London (2026).
