About me
I design experiences at the intersection of AI, robotics, and human understanding.
Based in Grenoble, France, I lead an interdisciplinary research team at Naver Labs Europe, working with sociologists, designers, and computer scientists to explore how emerging technologies could fit into people’s daily lives.
My background combines industrial design, interaction design, and user research. I graduated in Industrial Design from the National University of Mar del Plata in Argentina in 2013, then moved to Italy in 2015 to pursue a Master’s degree in Interaction Design at Domus Academy.
Since then, I have worked across organizations of different scales, from startups to established companies. I have also been involved in academic activities in higher education institutions both in Argentina and Italy.
I believe design can help shape more useful, inclusive, and enjoyable technologies. My work has led to peer-reviewed publications, awards, and patents.

Beyond.
I have always explored —sports, illustration, theatre, music, etc. Lately, I recorded a song for my wife and son (all heart, no skill) with the help of a close musician friend, and I produced a short documentary with my brother about our grandfather for his 90th birthday, screened at the Los Molinos Film Festival.
