Barnabite. General Library and Archivist of the Centro Studi Storici dei PP. Barnabiti, Rector of the church of SS. Biagio e Carlo ai Catinari. Born in Peumo (Chile). I have always had a predilection for history and library and archival environments, which I consider fundamental elements of our memory and identity. I completed my initial training at the Barnabite school in San Vicente de T.T. (Chile), subsequently attending higher education at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile and the Alberto Hurtado University, where I obtained a university degree in Education.
I attended the Faculty of History and Cultural Heritage of the Church at the Pontifical Gregorian University and the Vatican School of Paleography, Diplomatics and Archival Studies in the Secret (now Apostolic) Vatican Archives.
My areas of research, in addition to the archival and librarianship environments, are the history of the Barnabite Order, particularly in the period 1815 - 1861. I currently follow the work of cataloging and inventorying the material belonging to the distinguished religious in the field of Archeology and Egyptology, and the figure of the Barnabite Cardinal Giuseppe M. Granniello.
