Co-founder & CEO

Chief Technology Officer | CTO-as-a-Service | Chief Data Officer | Enterprise Solutions Architecture | Digital Applications

I am an IT professional with more than 20 years of expertise in enterprise architecture, value selling, pre-sales, advisory, and delivery software solutions to address business outcomes. I accomplish it by putting myself into customers' positions, listening to their problems, and solving them by gathering a great team, leveraging modern technology, and learning continuously.

From consulting to big tech companies, I was exposed to the best-of-breed technologies, and it has allowed me to design and sell state-of-the-art solutions to customers. That's why I can turn visions into $M USD revenue streams.

Over time, I learned to work very structured and analytically. I've also learned that it doesn't necessarily need to limit my creativity or my open mind. It has enabled me to identify replicable solutions that repeat themselves at some level across different industries and sell them.

I have held different executive positions in the IT industry. By performing those positions, I realized and learned a lot about myself (and still do):

1. I can bring people together towards a common objective.
	- I believe in people.
	- I align people's expectations with converging goals.
	- I listen, lead, and communicate with them.
	- I position myself based on data but also believe in my instincts and perceptions.

2. I sell technology based on customer needs.
	- I have a customer-first approach.
	- I speak business and technology.
	- I deliver viable technology architecture.
	- I tell stories.
	- I take ownership.

3. I seek continuous personal growth.
	- My family is my most significant life project.
	- I am a continuous learner.
	- I am a tech-savvy.
	- I play tennis and run.

Reach out if you want to connect! There's a good chance we'd get along well if you also believe every business is a technology one. The same goes if you are thinking every day about AI taking over the world or about how can data-driven architectures and data platforms accelerate revenue streams. Or, perhaps, you are a tennis fan like me and love to geek out about it too.
