As a General Counsel and Regional Compliance Officer with over 20 years of experience, I don’t just "do the law"—I own outcomes. I specialize in navigating complex legal and regulatory landscapes across Mexico and Latin America, transforming the legal function from a defensive cost center into a strategic engine for growth. My Focus: Resolution Velocity I prioritize closing cases and contracts efficiently to maintain business momentum. Whether it is securing high-value public tenders or designing compliance frameworks that mitigate future filing risk by identifying proactive solutions, my goal is always to protect the bottom line while enabling the C-suite to scale. Core Expertise: Strategic Growth: Partnering with sales and leadership to accelerate IoT, digital payments, and infrastructure projects. Regional Leadership: Managing legal affairs across 10+ LatAm countries with a focus on unified corporate governance. Compliance Engineering: Implementing anti-corruption and data privacy programs that serve as a competitive advantage rather than a hurdle. Network Management: Optimizing the performance of internal teams and expansive networks of external law firms. Recognized in the GC Powerlist Mexico, I am passionate about legal innovation and high-stakes problem solving. I am always looking to connect with leaders who value "Outcome Ownership" and strategic legal excellence.
