Profile

Business & Technology

Dual majors in economics and computer science, backed by 30+ years of global experience. I work as data architect, data engineer, and business analyst at once — and as a team leader and coach — acting as the bridge between business and technology.

Data Management

A certified data management professional with an outstanding record designing and implementing data products well aligned with business strategy. I establish data management and governance processes that keep data AI-ready and optimally used to support business growth — grounded in top frameworks and global best practices.

Program Management

I have contributed to successful business transformations around the world through business acumen, design thinking, deep technical expertise, agile delivery, and a customer-first orientation. I guide the maturity assessment across the dimensions of success — organization, process, systems, and data — define the right roadmap, and put it into action.

Ahead of the curve — since 2017

Back in 2017 I founded Aiconomica based on my early perception that AI had brought us to a turning point — and that the decade would belong to data-driven, AI-infused business models. I built my practice on a simple conviction: trustworthy, governed data is what turns that promise into real economic value. Years on, that is exactly the bridge I help organisations cross.
