-The years went on, I was just a teenager in that time and I really thought at
-some point it would be easy to program my first game, like if it was a simple
-thing to do. I was wrong. It's still hard nowadays, and there are lots of
-frameworks to facilitate the process of creating videogames. Back then was
-plainly impossible without a big team. Not at least the kind of games I wanted
-to create.

-I went to college and got my degree in Computer Sciences in 2013. As I finished
-and wasn't really aware of what to do with my degree I started a PhD. I
-finished my PhD in the area of Machine Learning (with focus on semisupervised
-learning and deep learning) and Natural Language Processing (working on Spanish
-verb sense disambiguation and legal information extraction) in 2018.

-I enjoy coding and learning programming languages in general, and I try new
-tools when I get bored on the ones I am working with. The language I use the
-most is Python, but I also code in C/C++, Scala (I specially like the Spark
-framework), JavaScript, Ruby, BASH (and it suite of tools for text processing
-like AWK or SED), and I can proudly say I have Perl readability. The last
-language I'm learning is Rust.

-My last job in Argentina was as a full time researcher at [Mercado
-Libre](https://www.mercadolibre.com/), the leader platform in e-Commerce in
-Latin America. I worked on representation learning for products in the
-e-Commerce platform with special focus on multimodal learning and transfer
-learning scenarios. Currently I'm doing a postdoc at "Université Côte d'Azur"
-in France, within the Wimmics Team, on Argumentation Mining.

-I also enjoy the work as a machine learning engineer. I like the whole MLOps
-process, particularly the set up of APIs to run machine learning models with the
-corresponding configurations and dockerization of the process. I work as a
-TopTal freelancer mostly doing this kind of projects.
