I am a highly qualified professional with over 30 years of experience in the hospitality and F&B market and am skilled in directing operations to drive business. My passion for leading people and my ability to build highly motivated teams have made my career successful in a multicultural environment working in different countries (Brazil, The US, and Chile). The flexibility, persistence, and capacity to adapt to different cultures were essential to my leadership, consistently delivering results above and beyond the company's expectations while operating with franchisees and owned company units.I had my bachelor's in agricultural engineering with an MBA in business and a post-MBA in business negotiation. In my career, I have experienced both sides of the business. Being an entrepreneur and as an employee who became a professional executive. This 360-degree vision allowed me to adapt to any environment and navigate them wisely.I consider myself a privileged person who had the opportunity to practice various sports when young, which has forged my personality from the lessons learned. The sport's core values such as competitiveness, challenges, team building, intensive training, respect for others, resilience, humility to learn from defeats, and focus on my goals are aspects of my personality. My family values and the education my parents provided me allowed me to become a better professional, father, and friend.
