Maximiliano specializes in environmental policy and circular economy, driving projects to tackle the triple planetary crisis and regenerate the planet.

He has developed public policy proposals to advance sustainable development and collaborated in documents at the frontier of knowledge on plastic pollution and waste management systems in Latin America. To this end, he has worked together with local governments and international organizations such as the IDB, CCAP, Oceana and the World Bank. In August 2025 he was part of Chile's national delegation in the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee to develop an international legally binding instrument on plastic pollution (INC5.2).

In addition, he published in the scientific journal Sustainability and was awarded as one of the best thesis in 2023 by the Parliamentary Academy of the Chamber of Deputies of Chile.
