About

Professional summary

I am an economist and corporate controller with more than 18 years of experience in management control, cost accounting, financial planning, and business performance analysis within industrial and wine-sector companies.

I specialize in annual budgeting, forecasting, consolidated profit and loss reporting, product costing, margin analysis, profitability analysis, and actual-versus-budget variance monitoring. I use financial insights to support data-driven executive decision-making.

Throughout my career, I have developed KPIs, management reports, and control processes that improve operational visibility, resource allocation, and business efficiency. I also have experience with internal audits, investment project evaluation, and economic feasibility studies.

I have worked with organizations including Domaine Bousquet, Verallia, Bodega Pascual Toso, and Trivento Bodegas y Viñedos, part of the Concha y Toro Group. My work has included cost-reduction initiatives, industrial process optimization, and consolidated corporate planning.

As an independent consultant, I evaluate logistics, infrastructure, agricultural, and sustainability projects, including financial and economic feasibility assessments. I complement my finance background with expertise in engineering management, project management, data intelligence, and business analytics.

I also have teaching experience as a full professor in economics, administration, personnel management, and project formulation and evaluation. I work with Advanced Excel, SAP, Power BI, QAD, QuickBooks, and MS Project.
