What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to further my commitment to social justice and ethical practices, ideally in an organization that values collaboration and community impact.

I am a lawyer with a strong commitment to building a more equitable society through my extensive experience in social impact and pro bono legal services. My work has involved coordinating high-impact initiatives and engaging with diverse stakeholders to promote responsible business practices and human rights. I believe in the power of strategic partnerships across the private sector, public institutions, and non-profits to create meaningful change.

In my role as Coordinator at Comisión Pro Bono Argentina, I successfully managed a network of 3,000 lawyers providing free legal services to over 2,000 NGOs and vulnerable communities. My key achievements include representing Argentina at the ECOSOC Forum at the United Nations and leading Argentina’s first Pro Bono Week, which garnered significant media attention. I am passionate about empowering the next generation of pro bono lawyers through initiatives like the Pro Bono Seed Program LatAm.

With a strong educational background, including postgraduate degrees in Sustainability, Nonprofit Management, and Human Rights, I am equipped with the knowledge and skills necessary to drive impactful legal projects. I am dedicated to fostering ethical, sustainable organizations and look forward to continuing my work in this vital area.
