What I'm looking for

I'm open to remote international opportunities.

At Glass-I INSTALACIONES, I founded and built a custom architectural solutions company, growing annual revenue from approximately MXN 4.5–5M in its first full year to approximately MXN 18–20M in 2025. I developed its commercial and operating structure and held direct responsibility for P&L, cash flow, and business performance.

At Grupo BodeVidrio, I turned around an underperforming business unit, reaching break-even within the first months of full management and sustaining monthly sales above MXN 4M. I also developed business across Latin America at A+W SOFTWARE, selling ERP and production-management software to manufacturing companies.
