What I'm looking for

I'm looking for commercial growth, business development, or partnerships work where I can build pipelines, open markets, negotiate strategic agreements, and create measurable, sustainable revenue across international B2B environments.

I founded Garage Ideas Sports, where I build commercial opportunities, strategic partnerships, and new revenue streams across international markets. I’ve closed 20+ commercial and sponsorship partnerships worth approximately USD $400K in signed agreements and negotiated opportunities exceeding USD $2M in potential value.

At Global Mobile Software, I led South American business development for a sports technology company, developing go-to-market strategies, enterprise relationships, and commercial expansion across regional markets.

I also led global sponsors and partnerships at Leviatán, expanding commercial opportunities across LATAM, North America, and Europe through multinational brands and long-term strategic agreements.

Across sports, media, technology, and consumer industries, I manage the full commercial cycle—from prospecting and pipeline development to negotiation, closing, and senior stakeholder relationships. I bring 10+ years of experience building sustainable B2B revenue across 20+ countries.
