Our Head of Administration not only has an important career in financial areas in multinational companies. This enthusiastic professional is also a man dedicated to his family and a mountaineer.

“The astronomical theme caught my attention as a child, and it was always a deeply felt professional aspiration to be able to work in an organization related to the observation of the cosmos”.

Together with his wife Aracelli, with whom he has been married for 21 years, he has four children. In his spare time, in addition to spending time with them, he trains as a trail runner and mountaineer, where his greatest achievement to date is the summit of Mount Plomo (5,424 meters above sea level).

“I am passionate about mountaineering and trail running is a way to maintain a proper physical condition and be on the hill when I don’t have much time to do longer outings.”

Cristián has professional experience in STEM, having worked in the Innovation and Development area of a Codelco subsidiary, as well as in the largest European R&D organization Fraunhofer, with two Centers of Excellence in Chile (in Biotechnology and Solar Energy).

About this new challenge at ALMA, he comments that “I assume the position with a lot of passion and enthusiasm, with the objective that, along with having a good time and enjoying ourselves, we can fulfill the strategic and functional role that corresponds to us in the Administration Department.”

Cristián: Any message you would like to share with colleagues?

“You have to aim and set ambitious goals, and then give the best of yourself.
This is the least one can do in every activity we do.”
