What I'm looking for

I’m looking to advise and lead roles around exporting organic ingredients—especially trade finance and working capital structures under Argentina’s post–Decree 269/2025 FX environment, plus organic certification compliance for US/EU market readiness.

I’m the Co-Founder and Director of Finance and Operations at Wishbone, building and scaling an organic food trading and export group operating across 30+ international markets since inception in 2015. I lead the full international commercial and export operation—from buyer development and contract negotiation to INCOTERMS structuring, logistics, certificates of origin, and post-shipment finance.

My edge is end-to-end trade finance and working capital under Argentina’s restrictive FX regime, including export pre-financing facilities, letters of credit, SBLCs, bank guarantees, and cross-border treasury between Argentine and US entities. I also manage multi-framework organic certification compliance (USDA NOP, EU Organic Regulation 2018/848, JAS), and I built Python/openpyxl/pandas cash-flow projection systems to model multi-currency operations under regulatory change—recognized as Exporter of the Year — NOA Region 2023.
