It's not just about

the technology.

It's what you do with it

that matters.

I’ve found that nothing earns respect faster

than results that can’t be argued with.

I'm a results-driven business technology executive with an extensive international career spearheading digital transformation and technology innovation across multiple industry sectors:

High-Performance Teams

I learned to lead by building team confidence in the goals, proposed solutions, alignment with the plan, and the governing processes.

Leadership isn’t about power or authority, and high-performing teams don’t form spontaneously. It takes gritty conversations, managing unrealistic plans, and navigating stakeholder self-interests to build the trust and confidence essential for successful execution.

I’ve learned that navigating intercultural communication isn’t just about language—it’s about reading the room across continents. Speaking several languages and leading diverse teams under pressure has taught me that cultural nuance isn’t a nice-to-have; it’s a powerful skill.

It’s less about being right or wrong and more about recognizing how culture and language shape the way people think, act, and do business. Once you see that, you're not just translating words—you’re translating mindsets.

Business Outcomes from Technology Innovation

Change is the only constant, and no company holds a permanent crown. Innovation is just creativity with a to-do list, and yes, sometimes it stumbles (especially when tripping over tech debt).

Navigating today’s landscape means threading through a fast-moving maze of technologies, shifting markets, evolving products, and relentless competition.

That’s where I come in. I help organizations modernize their tech stacks, speed up digital transformation, and evolve into lean, learning machines. Here are a few highlights:

Drove double-digit sales growth for a national food retailer by implementing innovative e-commerce upselling, cross-selling, and trade marketing strategies.
Cut freight, fuel, and fleet maintenance costs for a global FMCG leader with a cloud-based SaaS solution powered by IoT and Edge Computing.
Delivered multi-million dollar savings and efficiency gains by modernizing the global supply chain with Strategic Network Optimization, Advanced Planning, Manufacturing Execution, and Warehouse Management systems.

Technology Platforms for Sustainable Growth

An enterprise technology platform is the backbone of any company’s operations and customer engagement. When building these platforms, the critical question is always: build in-house or buy? These choices shape cost, resilience, scalability, agility, innovation, and competitive edge.

I’ve had the privilege of partnering with business leaders across the U.S., South America, and Europe to design and implement technology platforms that drive growth—especially through mergers and acquisitions (M&As)—and fuel continuous improvement. Here are a few highlights:

Modernized technology for a pulp and paper industry leader with an integrated platform combining enterprise SAP and Honeywell manufacturing execution systems.

International expansion acceleration of a leading global, fast-moving consumer goods company with an enterprise technology platform based on Oracle technologies.

Accelerating Time-to-Value

Successful technology adoption requires clarity on business outcomes, a sharp focus on value realization, and a balanced approach to cultural changes.

I help employers and clients accelerate their innovation agenda across the entire value chain. It begins by aligning teams around customer value, breaking down barriers between digital initiatives and traditional IT, and grows through the continuous improvement of value streams. Here are some examples:

Boosted value capture and productivity in M&A and divestitures by streamlining application portfolios—cutting complexity, costs, and technical debt.

Accelerated time to value and boosted agility by leveraging IT sourcing as a competitive edge—driving growth, cutting costs, and enhancing service through a dynamic multi-supplier program.

Drove operational efficiency and reduced risks by transforming the supply chain with an integrated Lean program across S&OP, Logistics, Manufacturing, and Food Safety.

Led with strategic clarity and strong execution—mobilizing technology and talent to accelerate a business carve-out while minimizing risks, costs, and performance gaps.

Life-long learning

I’m a lifelong learner with the curiosity of an explorer and a solid foundation in Computer Engineering, Computer Science, and Business Administration. I’m always on the lookout for opportunities to sharpen my skills—both personal and professional—no matter the setting.

Sapere Aude

The phrase Sapere Aude—“Dare to know”—originally appeared in Horace’s First Book of Letters (20 BC). It’s the moral of a story about a fool who waits for a stream to stop flowing before trying to cross.

In other words: “He who begins is half done.” Horace nails it—starting is everything. It’s a call to action, persistence, and rolling up your sleeves to tackle obstacles head-on.

That spirit of intellectual curiosity has been my engine, driving me to explore a wide range of studies and practices, including:
