As a seasoned urban planner and GIS specialist, I bring a robust background in spatial data analysis, database management, and advanced mapping techniques. My proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, InDesign, Photoshop), ArcGIS, AutoCAD, and Microsoft Office is complemented by deep expertise in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), GPS, and spatial data analysis. I am well-versed in Python, QGIS, SQL, and R, which allows me to handle complex data visualization tasks and produce highly detailed maps.
Over the years, I've developed a strong foundation in managing large datasets and performing spatial analyses for urban planning projects. My experience includes curating and integrating spatial data for various administrative and infrastructure projects across South America. For instance, I played a pivotal role in generating the base of directions for a national census in Uruguay, utilizing electricity user data to achieve comprehensive coverage. Additionally, my work on the hydrological modeling of the Paraná Delta and logistic networks of Mercosur demonstrates my capability in applying GIS technology to real-world challenges.
In my previous roles, I've coordinated urban development programs, focusing on self-built communities and public transportation systems. My work at the Ministry of Environment and the Municipality of Vicente López involved curating spatial data and developing land cover maps, which were crucial for environmental planning and urban policy-making.
As an educator, I’ve shared my knowledge with students, teaching courses on urbanism and architecture, and developing specialized content on global architectural movements. My teaching roles in Buenos Aires and Uruguay have allowed me to combine theory with practice, creating comprehensive learning experiences for my students.
In addition to my technical and academic pursuits, I have a strong creative side, demonstrated through my work as a curator for urban art projects. This creative flair is also evident in my ability to produce engaging visual content, whether it’s for presentations or public exhibitions.
I am eager to continue leveraging my technical skills and creative insights in future projects, particularly those that challenge me to innovate and contribute to sustainable urban development. Whether working on large-scale infrastructure projects or teaching the next generation of urban planners, I am committed to excellence and impactful results.
