Summary
As a manager in innovation financing, I am increasingly interested in strategic consulting. I develop my own entrepreneurial projects because I like to provide solutions to solve complex problems. Currently, I'm pursuing an Executive MBA at Hult International Business School in London to deepen my knowledge in strategic business management and consulting in an international context. My motivation lies in guiding companies through strategic decisions and supporting projects that have a positive impact on society. I worked in different firms as an expert consultant in innovation financing for major account clients (specialized in banking, insurance, IT, electronics).
My 9 years experience have allowed me to evolve in different work environments. Because I love human beings, I believe that no condition is automatically favorable to us, but it is up to us to work to make each situation favorable, and allow everyone to express their full potential.
