Trusted Advisor. Global Perspective. Talent Developer. As a bilingual senior executive and attorney, I collaborate with global boards and leadership teams to optimize financial opportunities by navigating competing interests, mitigating risk, and resolving complex business challenges. For 35+ years, I have advised global banks, financial institutions, and multinational corporations on Latin American business issues and transactions. I’ve counseled clients on far-reaching legal and financial business matters from Spain, Portugal, France, Japan, South Korea, and Germany. As part of a global multiyear IBOR transition project, I recently served as senior attorney in the Americas supporting MUFG Bank’s contract remediation of its $175+B LIBOR-based credit portfolio. Given the significant focus on climate and sustainability, I also advised leaders in the Americas in complying with regulatory requirements. Served as chief counsel for MUFG Bank’s regional offices in Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Colombia, and Peru. I am a Cuban-born American who has lived and worked in multiple countries developing cross-cultural sensitivity and a global network that allows me to serve clients, organizations, and employees. Committed to helping diverse attorneys achieve their full potential through mentoring and coaching, I create inclusive, accountable cultures based on integrity and team engagement.
