PhD | MBA | MSF | MSISM | EFA

With more than a decade of international banking experience in Spain and the USA, I have held roles in alternative investments, risk management, operations, and several commercial positions. Currently, I serve at Santander Private Banking International (SPBI) in Miami, USA.

I am an Associate Professor at EGADE Business School—TEC Monterrey (Mexico) and MIU City University Miami (USA). I have also lectured at various universities on Finance and Innovation and am an active member of the Research Group of Applied Economics and Management at the University of Seville.

In addition to academia, I'm a startup mentor for Open Future, Telefonica's global incubator. I assist entrepreneurs with financial models and valuations.

I'm proud to have received the EB-1A VISA, a recognition the US government reserved for 'individuals with extraordinary abilities'.
