About

I work with companies expanding between Canada, Spain and the EU, helping them navigate new markets, build partnerships and move projects forward. I'm particularly interested in situations where the right introduction or insight can unlock something real — whether that's a partnership, a project or a new market entry. In my day-to-day, I connect business, institutions and ecosystems to make things happen in a practical way, not just on paper.
