I also implemented Salesforce for several private equity-backed companies, enhancing their marketing and sales metrics tracking.Previously, as Executive Vice President of Finance & Operations at Paranet Solutions, I was instrumental in improving EBITDA by 12% in less than a year through optimized cost dynamics and streamlined operational efficiency.
