THE JOURNEY
As someone who has seen the transformative power of technology, I believe that everyone, regardless of where they come from, should have access to the opportunities the tech world offers. My mission is to break down the barriers that prevent people from entering this field, whether it's due to a lack of resources, education, or support. Technology isn’t just a career path—it’s a way to uplift communities, create change, and shape a better future for everyone.

BIO
EARLY BEGINNINGS
In 2011, I founded Comunidad IT in Argentina, with the goal of providing free tech training to individuals facing
employment barriers.
My work took me across Argentina, Chile, Mexico, and other Latin American countries, where I helped people gain
the skills they needed to enter the tech field.
THE MOVE TO CANADA
After moving to Manitoba in 2015, I saw a similar issue—many people were working survival jobs without access to the
training needed to advance their careers. At the same time, the demand for IT professionals was growing.
Motivated by what I had seen in Latin America, I decided to address this gap in Canada.
FOUNDING COMIT
In 2016, I founded ComIT, a charitable organization dedicated to breaking down barriers in the tech industry by
offering free technology and professional skills training to unemployed and underemployed Canadians.
ComIT focuses on supporting Indigenous peoples, immigrants, visible minorities, and other communities facing employment
barriers, aiming to create a more inclusive tech sector.

PASSION FOR TECH INCLUSION
I’m passionate about ensuring that technology education is accessible to everyone because I believe it’s a powerful tool for social change. By opening doors for underrepresented groups, we are helping to diversify and strengthen the tech sector.
ADVOCATING FOR CHANGE
To promote these changes, I write articles and actively participate in events, talks, and panels, advocating for inclusion in the tech industry. One of my proudest achievements has been launching the Recoding Futures program in 2021 with the support of Google Canada, providing Indigenous learners with the tools to pursue careers in tech.

COLLABORATIONS
Before founding ComIT, I worked as an IT professional at Microsoft and IBM, experiences that helped me understand how technology
can be a force for good.
Throughout my career, I’ve worked closely with companies like Microsoft, Google, Cisco, and Oracle on various projects.
I’ve also collaborated with universities such as MIT, the University of Buenos Aires, and UdeSA, as well as with federal
and provincial governments in Canada and Argentina.
CONTINUING THE MISSION
Today, I live in Winnipeg with my family, where I continue my mission to ensure that everyone, regardless of background, has access to education and the tools needed to thrive in the tech industry.
