During 20 years as a Finance Manager in international companies I have experienced many changes; M&As, ERP implementations and business model redefinitions.

I believe in target setting, teamwork, respect for individuals and common sense as sources of growth and transformation in all organizations.

Challenges motivate me. I help companies to prepare and put in practice action plans focused on the implementation of strategy and optimization of performance.
