About

I always liked telling stories. It is the most beautiful sensation in the world: tell and find stories. Unknown and hidden stories but with the potential to transform or change realities. Journalism gives me every day the opportunity to work telling those stories. Some of them good, some not so much, but all true and that are part of the world in which we live today. I am a young journalist, restless and eager to develop and learn many skills. I am passionate about digital and videojournalism. I studied at Colegio Seminario in Montevideo and later at Universidad Católica del Uruguay where I got one of the best averages in my journalism class. For more than two years I have been working in the newspaper El Observador, one of the most important media companies in Uruguay, which has strengthened and developed its digital area more than ever. I participated in the process of transferring the daily paper to the digital site contributing and executing ideas to make the news an experience that includes, for the readers, to see and to listen, not only reading. I worked covering many areas such as technology, science, politics, culture and trends. At the same time I developed as a multimedia journalist and told stories in both text and images and video. I know how to work in a team and under pressure thanks to the rhythms and the modalities of carrying out the tasks that we always had in El Observador. On the other hand, and thanks to my academic background, I am able to work in any format. Either press, radio, television, or - as I like the most - mixing the three formats into one: digital.
