About

Professional summary

I am an operations and commercial strategy executive with extensive experience managing B2B client relationships, driving revenue growth, and resolving complex operational issues across multi-country environments.

I have a proven track record of building partner relationships, developing go-to-market strategies, achieving sales targets, and delivering exceptional client experience through data-driven decision making and team development.

My background includes stakeholder management, pipeline management, performance analytics, and coaching teams to exceed goals in fast-paced, high-growth environments.

I have led international operations across Latin America, North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific, coordinating cross-functional teams in HR, Finance, Marketing, Operations, IT, production, logistics, and quality.

I also bring strong experience in account management, franchise operations, payroll support, and process improvement, with a focus on service quality, SLA compliance, and scalable operational structures.

I am bilingual in English and Spanish, and I am currently pursuing an Executive MBA at INALDE Business School, with graduation expected in December 2026.

My academic background in industrial engineering and entrepreneurship supports my analytical approach to business challenges, and I am especially interested in growth, international expansion, and continuous improvement.
