What I'm looking for
I am a qualified Uruguayan lawyer with extensive international experience in public, corporate, and regulatory law. My career has been marked by a proven track record of advising senior government officials and private clients on complex legal matters, including mergers and acquisitions, public-private partnerships, and international transactions.
Currently, I am completing my Master’s degree in Law in Madrid, where I am focusing on EU law, competition, and cross-border legal frameworks. My fluency in both English and Spanish, combined with a comparative legal perspective, allows me to approach legal challenges with a strategic and solutions-driven mindset.
