Strategic Agribusiness Leader | Cross-Border Business Development | Circular Economy Professional Profile With over 40 years of experience across the Americas, I specialize in bridging the gap between technical agronomy and high-level corporate strategy. Born in Costa Rica and based in Mexico, my career is defined by a "boots-on-the-ground" philosophy, ensuring that every innovative solution is both operationally practical and environmentally sustainable. Core Expertise Strategic Leadership: VP at FGH International, where I oversee a shared-services hub in Tampico that provides comprehensive legal, tax, HR, and logistics support for complex regional agribusiness operations. International Development: Former Project Manager at Pulsar International, where I spearheaded expansion initiatives across the continent for one of the world's premier R&D-driven agribusinesses. Agro-Finance: Served as Regional Manager and Technical Consultant at Banpais Bank, developing deep expertise in the intersection of agricultural production and financial viability. Technical Foundation: Began my career as a forage researcher, underpinned by a B.Sc. in Animal Science from Monterrey Tech, with advanced studies at Texas A&M University and the University of Edinburgh. Professional Philosophy I am a strategic thinker committed to creating synergies between diverse partners to solve complex, systemic problems. My approach combines a rigorous work ethic with the emotional intelligence required to communicate effectively across the entire value chain—from small-scale producers in the field to international executives in the boardroom. I am dedicated to driving agricultural growth that is as socially responsible as it is commercially profitable.
