From Buenos Aires to Chicago. I build things that work — businesses, teams, systems. I've been running a managed IT services company in the Chicago area for over a decade, and I'm still learning something new every week.
I grew up in Buenos Aires, Argentina — a city that teaches you to be resourceful early. Life there shaped how I think: you solve problems with what you have, you move fast, and you don't wait for perfect conditions.
My family was central to everything. My brother and I were close growing up, and that relationship — the hustle, the conversations, the shared ambition — planted the seed for my entrepreneurial path. We both understood early on that if you wanted something, you had to go build it.
"You don't wait for perfect conditions. You build with what you have, and you improve as you go."
Before I ever landed in the United States, I was already running a business in Argentina. That experience taught me the fundamentals that still guide me today: margins matter, clients remember how you make them feel, and the only way to grow is to hire people smarter than you in specific areas.
My first venture wasn't in IT — it was the kind of business you start when opportunity meets necessity. It didn't scale forever, but it gave me the confidence that I could figure things out. That confidence was the real asset I carried into the next chapter.
Moving to the United States was the biggest decision I've made. New country, new language, new rules. I arrived in the Chicago area and quickly understood that adapting wasn't optional — it was the only way forward.
English was and still is something I work on deliberately. I record my meetings with Krisp, I run transcripts through AI analysis, I work with a speech therapist, and I track my fluency scores over time. I don't pretend to be further along than I am. I treat my own English improvement the same way I treat any business problem: measure it, find the highest-leverage weakness, and drill that one thing.
The early years in Chicago included different jobs and roles — always in technology-adjacent spaces, always learning the market, always building relationships. Each step was a brick in the foundation for what became CIO Landing.
The Chicago area became home in every sense. Northbrook is where my family lives, where my daughters go to school, where I sit on the HOA board at our building on West Hutchinson, where I'm active in the Entrepreneurs' Organization. The city gave me my business and my community. I gave it back by showing up.
I'm a member of EO Chicago — Entrepreneurs' Organization — where I've given and listened to talks, participated in the 5% Reflection practice, and built relationships with other founders who understand what it means to carry a business on your back while also trying to be a good parent and partner.
CIO Landing started in 2012 out of a simple belief: small and mid-sized businesses in the Chicago area deserved enterprise-level IT support without the enterprise price tag. I'd seen the gap. I knew I could close it.
The company merged in 2013 with JC, which gave us additional depth, processes, and clients. That early history shaped the operational DNA of what CIO Landing is today: a team that takes client relationships seriously and runs on recurring managed-service contracts.
Over more than a decade, we grew from a startup into a stable, growing business with a diversified client base, tight operating margins, and a technical team built to deliver. In 2023 we acquired BSSI2, expanding our capabilities and client base further. We serve small and mid-sized businesses across the Chicago metro — handling everything from day-to-day IT support to cybersecurity advisory, cloud infrastructure, and compliance work.
"We built CIO Landing to be what a small business's internal IT department would be — if they could afford a great one."
What I'm most proud of is the team. Running an MSP means being on call when something breaks at 10pm on a Friday — and our people show up. That culture of reliability is not an accident. It's built through hiring carefully, communicating clearly, and setting expectations that we then consistently meet.
Today I'm also exploring what the next chapter looks like — whether that's continued organic growth, strategic partnerships, or evaluating acquisition opportunities. The MSP market is consolidating fast. We intend to be deliberate about how we move in that environment.

Family isn't a balance I try to achieve against work. It's the reason the work matters. Every decision — business, financial, personal — runs through the lens of what's best for them.
"Every business decision eventually comes back to this: what does this mean for the family? That's not a constraint — it's a compass."
I write about three things: artificial intelligence and where it's going, IT and managed services, and personal reflections on business, family, and growth. Pick your topic.
Whether it's a business conversation, a collaboration, or just a question about IT, AI, or the MSP world — I'm happy to talk. I respond to every genuine message.
