About me..

I’m a fashion designer born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina. After graduating with honours I wanted to explore the world. That’s when I first went to New York for an internship and took some extra classes at FIT and Parsons.

Wanting to know other cities I moved to Europe, landing in Barcelona where I worked as a designer and eventually I started specialising myself in the denim industry.

My eagerness to keep growing found me taking a job opportunity that was half of the time in Beijing, China and the other half in Amsterdam. The experience was amazing and I learned a great deal about suppliers, trends, team management, time and calendar organisation and many other skills.

After traveling constantly for 4 years, I decided to settle in Amsterdam realising it was my favourite city in the world so far. I freelanced for suppliers that knew my talents and skills, while at the same time I opened a cocktail bar in the centre of the city. The entrepreneurial experience taught me a side of myself that I wasn’t sure I had in me, but I learned every step of the way and succeeded.

One day I got an offer from G-Star and since I was a big fan of the brand I couldn’t say no. I managed the denim team focusing on the creativity, organisation, reaching deadlines, keeping the brand identity and giving the space to the designers in my team to grow as well.

All these years of experience showed me how important it is to keep learning and growing, and to stay curious in order to maintain a positive motivation, professionally and personally. That’s why I always find myself in need of new adventures and interesting projects.
