About

I research and write about Irish-Latin American relations, artwork in the international organizations, and links between food and music. Born in Argentina, I studied agronomy and became aware of the amazing complexity of the biological environments in which we live in. Then I worked in the corporate world in the United States and in Latin America. I acquired first-hand knowledge of how capitalist values work in the real world. After moving to Europe, I joined an international organization in Geneva (the WTO) as publishing manager. As co-founder of the Society for Irish Latin American Studies (SILAS) and the first editor of its journal I was able to study trans-Atlantic migrations, especially the Irish in Latin America. During a period as invited professor at University of Cape Verde, I edited a multi-author collection of essays about the relations between food and music. More recently, I researched and published works about the history of architecture and works of art in the Centre William Rappard of Geneva (cover image: “In GATT We (T)rust” by Claude Namy, 1966).
