I was born, raised, and educated in Buenos Aires. Regarding my Jewish education, I attended the elementary school Bet-El, which belongs to the congregation of the same name, founded by Rabbi Marshall Meyer, who also created the Seminario Rabínico Latinoamericano, where I continued my Judaic studies at the Solomon Shechter Institute. After studying at the University of Tel Aviv for a year, I came back to Argentina where I graduated as a Psychologist from the University of Buenos Aires (UBA). After years of working in the Human Resources department of several multinational companies, I felt the need to do something that fully represented who I am: a person deeply in love with Argentina and passionate about my Judaism. My great-grandparents arrived from Syria over one hundred years ago. My family history and my passion for showing that which I love, let me work as a tour guide in Buenos Aires. On a personal note, I would like to thank my beloved parents for providing me with the finest education; my teachers that taught me to think for myself regardless of the circumstances, which was not an easy task considering that I grew up during a dictatorship. Furthermore, I want to thank my clients, who challenge me every day, allowing me to discover that there is always something new to learn and show. I am a certified tour guide by the Government of the City of Buenos Aires. Psychologist (University of Buenos Aires). I have no restrictions.

Continue to discover this fascinating borough of the city by learning about the palaces that are located along Alvear Avenue, one of the most elegant streets of Buenos Aires.
