## About

At Grupo TX, I led regional technology delivery and business transformation across Latin American markets. I directed approximately 30 professionals and oversaw ERP, tax administration, and GIS implementations, including stabilization of complex government technology programs.

At Avianca, I generated procurement savings exceeding USD 800,000 through negotiations, contract optimization, and supplier management. Earlier, I spent 13 years at Citigroup in strategic procurement and technology vendor management, and at IBM I led projects including implementation of El Salvador’s first National Emergency 911 System.
