I am a Computer Engineer and an entrepreneur. I have strong interest for products, UX, new technologies, startups and new business models.I've worked for the last 15 years building & shipping software products from scratch. At ComponentOne, I led the design & implementation of a suite of developer tools. Then, I founded a bill payments startup (Paganza) which become the leader in Uruguay and was acquired by the Santander Group. Since then, I direct an innovation lab for Santander (which turned into a 50+ people digital factory) where we develop new products. I've also published an academic paper about modeling languages for user interfaces back in the day, but that was long time ago. Interests: building things, product, start ups, software, usability, business strategy, fintech, domain specific languages, NoCode. Not necessarily is that order.
