Why am I a member of Leadem Women Leaders?

Being a member of Leadem allows me not only to connect with women leaders with aligned values and goals from different regions, but also allows us to work together to strengthen each other and inspire the rest of society by example.

My bio in a nutshell

Her academic background was spent in the United States, France and Argentina, which allowed her to gain a more comprehensive understanding of political and economic conflicts both locally and globally.

 

In Argentina, he obtained his undergraduate degree in Economics at the Torcuato Di Tella University, the same university where he completed his Masters in Finance. This training allowed him in his early years as a professional to occupy different positions in local financial institutions, leaving him with a solid knowledge of the financial market.

 

In her quest to strengthen her training as a researcher in international economics, she continued her studies at Université Paris Dauphine where she obtained her Master Recherche en Economie Internationale et developpement. Upon her return to Buenos Aires, she worked as Director of Economics at a consulting firm specialising in the financial system.

 

Her interest in the interaction between monetary policy and the financial system led her to continue her education in the United States, where she obtained an MPA in Economic Policy Management at Columbia University, strengthening her specialisation in monetary policy and financial stability.  As a result of her solid training and professional aptitude, she worked at the International Monetary Fund, and currently holds the position of Macroeconomist at the Congressional Budget Office, while working as an external consultant to international organisations and public and private sector institutions.

A bit of publicity for my work?

The societal values I bring to my organisation, to my environment?

In a dynamic world that requires constant adaptation, it is essential to communicate with respect, inclusiveness, clarity, honesty, and effectiveness both professionally, academically and socially, and these are the essential values that I practice in all the areas in which I am involved.
