My Experience
After a successful Executive career of more than 20 years in the Engineering and Project Management Business, I started my own company to provide management consulting and PM services, where I applied myself as a consultant and a coach. We successfully executed projects with local allies in the North and Latin American Markets, for clients in the Oil, Gas, and Infrastructure sectors.
My personal experience led me to change in the direction of tackling significant social problems, as a way to have positive and lasting impact in my surroundings. Thus, I decided to become a social entrepreneur, with a particular passion to work in the areas of leadership, civic engagement and social development.
My first project was CITIVIVA, a startup which developed a next-generation Cloud platform to create a virtual space in which citizens, services and city governments can work together to make cities better places to live in.
cities better places to live in.
Following CITIVIVA, I recently completed a Certificate on Digital Transformation from UC Berkeley Haas, and a Professional Certificate in Leadership Coaching for Organizational Development at the University of Rutgers, New Jersey, which complement my Master of Business Administration degree at Henley Management College in the UK. This academic training has given me tools to design methodologies and offer updated knowledge and skills to my clients.
