Arturo González, originally from Bell Ville, Córdoba Province, and raised in San Lorenzo, Santa Fe, Argentina, discovered his passion for gastronomy at a young age thanks to his grandmother, Justina Paz (Abuela Pitina). She not only raised him but also taught him how to cook, instilling in him both a love for food and the traditions of his ancestors.

He trained at the Gato Dumas Culinary School in Rosario and later earned a scholarship from ICEX, the Government of Spain, to study at the Basque Culinary Center in San Sebastián, where he completed the Spanish Cuisine Program. His education continued with specialized courses, including the Advanced Culinary Training program at the Basque Culinary Center, the CAB Protein Course in Nebraska, USA, and the Sous-Vide Cuisine Program in Washington, USA, with Cuisine Solutions.

Arturo has built a remarkable career working for prestigious international brands such as Meliá Hotels International and Hard Rock, gaining experience across Mexico, the Dominican Republic, the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, Colombia, the United States, and Argentina. He has held leadership roles including Executive Chef, Regional Chef, and Corporate Chef.

Today, he proudly serves as Executive Chef at Hyatt Ziva Cancún, leading the culinary team and showcasing his blend of international expertise, heritage, and innovation.
