Message

At Soller Advocacia, I drafted, reviewed, and negotiated commercial agreements and administrative documentation, aligning them with compliance requirements and corporate risk strategies. I analyzed complex regulatory frameworks and translated statutory obligations into practical internal procedures.

As a volunteer Internal Auditor for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Regional Stake Oversight), I audited administrative and financial processes, tested reporting and documentation, and recommended improvements to internal controls. My Master in the Law of Regulated Industries at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid included research on the EU ETS and CBAM.
