I'm a software engineer, educator, and strategic advisor with 17+ years of experience. I've worked across software development, NGOs, academia, journalism, and the arts, which means I've spent a long time figuring out how technology actually fits into the real world, not just how it's supposed to. Today, I help tech professionals and leaders get unstuck: whether that's a career decision, a team dynamic, a communication problem, or a strategy that isn't quite landing. I'm also a science communicator. I host TV shows, write books, and speak in front of large audiences. One of the things I enjoy most is helping software developers actually communicate with other humans. Turns out it's a skill, and it can be learned. I hold an engineering degree from Universidad Tecnológica Nacional, an M.S. in Software Engineering from UC Irvine, and have completed entrepreneurship programs at George Mason University, UBA, and LSE. I ask the right questions. And I tell you what I actually think.
