Committed to blockchain and sustainability

I've spent a significant part of my career at the intersection of blockchain and sustainability, working at UCL's Centre for Blockchain Technologies and the DLT Science Foundation. My primary focus has been understanding the energy consumption of blockchain and the carbon footprint of crypto. It's not about the accolades, but about finding real, sustainable solutions. Through Distributed Ledger Technology, I've been working on improving carbon trading systems. Teaching at the Catholic University of Argentina and the Catholic University of Córdoba has allowed me to share my knowledge and learn from the next generation. Every project and committee I've been involved with aims to integrate technology with sustainability in practical ways.

About me
