School Support Team

I studied Business Economics at the Torcuato Di Tella University, during which time I also worked on fundraising and public relations for the Fundación Iniciativa, promoting youth participation in society. After graduation, I worked as a Business Consultant at Proguide, and then spent time working and traveling overseas, mainly in New Zealand and Southeast Asia, where I worked in Business Process Reengineering (BPR) and as a Coordinator at the Auckland City Council. I helped found Expanish after returning from my travels, as a result of my experiences abroad.

My experience abroad helped me realize how important it is to be immersed in the culture surrounding a language, rather than just sitting in a classroom with fellow foreigners. Contact with locals, volunteer work, and hands-on activities are vital experiences while studying abroad, which we have tried to reflect in the organization mission.

Born in the north of Argentina and raised in Buenos Aires, my parents encouraged me to undertake my own projects from a young age and gave me my first opportunities to travel and explore new places. Once I got older, I studied Economics in college and went on to receive a Masters in Finance (I obviously love numbers!). After graduation, I worked on government research projects looking at public debt and for Price Waterhouse Coopers as a business consultant. During this time I did some traveling abroad, and realized that being truly immersed in different cultures is an invaluable experience that profoundly changes the way we think, letting us view the world through a different lens. We created Expanish with the hope of helping others realize this experience.

Besides working for Expanish, I am currently doing my MBA at the University of Torcuato Di Tella. Before coming to Argentina I graduated with a degree in translation from the University of Heidelberg in Germany. Thanks to my love for and curiosity about new countries, I have gained much experience living and studying abroad. After finishing high school I spent half a year traveling and working in Australia, New Zealand and Asia. During my university years, I studied at the University of Granada in Spain as an exchange student and later also worked as a language teacher in Bologna, Italy, for six months. Soon after graduating, I felt I needed a new challenge. This brought me here, to a job I deeply enjoy and an interesting postgraduate degree in Buenos Aires.

Languages and foreign countries have always been my passion. Combining this with a position that lets me put my more recently acquired skills to work in a friendly, international and never boring environment is more than I could wish for.

Background

Born and raised in Bahía Blanca, Argentina, (southern coast below Buenos Aires) I was the youngest child of the family. I graduated university with a degree in Industrial Organization, and I also took courses of Literature, Design, and Psychology. After I graduated university, I moved to Buenos Aires. I have an extensive experience in administrative and accounting jobs working for different organizations such as banks, big and small businesses and NGOs (charity and educational foundation). I love learning languages, making handcrafts, spending time with friends and drinking “mate”.

Because I love languages, and I also love to work in a multicultural environment. It’s great to be in an organization that allows foreign people to live the experience of learning Spanish in the place where it is spoken.

Background

I have been always interested in aesthetics and proportions and curious about the world and its people. I studied photography and filmmaking and then explored the old world of Europe. I have currently gone back to school in order to study Physics at the University of Buenos Aires. I am quite eclectic.

The environment is great, enthusiastic and challenging. I really enjoy the diversity of the workplace because it keeps me learning all the time.

Background

Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, I have always been curious about how people interact with each other, and I love the Internet and technology. So, I study "communications" (I am in my second year at the University of Buenos Aires) and I administrate an Internet community website: two things that I do to understand and analyze people’s behavior.

Background

I received my Bachelors in Business/Economics and Spanish from the University of California, Santa Barbara in 2007.  Studying abroad for one year in Madrid, Spain, ignited my interest in the Spanish language and in Latin cultures.  I moved to Buenos Aires this year to continue learning and plan on staying for at least a year.

After growing and learning so much during my year studying in Spain, I wanted to get involved with a school abroad to encourage others to experience life abroad. I strongly believe in the importance of global education and Expanish has everything that I would want in an experience abroad.  I am proud and excited to be a part of the Expanish team.
