Skills
Summary
I help start-up and small companies achieve financial success. My extensive experience as a founder, CEO, CFO, and board member equips me with the skills to advise of finance, fundraising, M&A, and growth strategies. From launching the first Bitcoin ATMs to developing the Chivo system in El Salvador, my journey reflects a deep commitment to bridging the gap between physical and digital currencies. With over $50M raised and guiding clients through Series A rounds and acquisitions totaling $200M, I'm dedicated to pioneering helping young companies thrive.
