Founder and CEO at TALBA Group

About

I serve as the CEO and Rainmaker at TALBA Group, where I’ve built a reputation for integrity, transparency, and a client-first approach. I prioritize clear communication and understanding each client’s unique goals, believing that true satisfaction comes from partnering closely to define success. Before TALBA Group, I co-founded two technology startups: Webflows, offering Wi-Fi as a service for large enterprises, and Atom AMPD, a unified B2B telecommunications solution provider. I led product development and managed sales for both. Earlier in my career, I held senior roles at Ipsilon Networks, which was acquired by Nokia, serving as General Manager for the Latin America & Caribbean Region and later as Global Director for Media Houses & Service Providers. This diverse background gives me a distinct advantage in real estate, with a tech-driven approach to efficiency and growth.
