He’s written three books on migration and currently writes for a number of publications like in English and Platts covering South American natural gas and electricity markets.

Tessieri graduated from the University of California at Los Angeles and is presently doing his post-graduate studies at Turku University in Finland. After completing school in the United States, he moved to Argentina (1977-78) briefly and started doing fieldwork on a Finnish colony in the northeast of the country.
