Description

My curiosity has shaped my career to learn about business growth through innovation and technology. Together with my passion for traveling, which led me to more than 80 countries, I had the opportunity to work with outstanding leaders and entrepreneurs in different industries delivering international transformational projects in areas such as IT Development and Services, Healthcare, Retail, FMCG, Financial Services, Government, NGOs, Oil, and Gas, among others.

During my consulting practice, I have specialized in guiding companies to navigate growth challenges, developing skills in Business Strategy, Change Management, Project Leadership, Business Development, and Executive Coaching in clients such as Circle, Bupa Cromwell Hospital, Blackpool Teaching Hospital, Jeroen Bosch Ziekenhuis, Total, BP, Shell, Galp, Ameco/Servitrade, Webcor Group, Primavera/Cegid, and USAID.

I have very good knowledge of the international markets and a strong network, especially in EMEA and LATAM, as I worked in different countries, including Portugal, the United Kingdom, Netherlands, Brazil, France, Spain, México, Chile, Angola, Mozambique, Swaziland, Gambia, Switzerland, and the UAE.

Since 2012, I have also started and co-founded startups in various sectors such as Medtech, EdTech, IoT, and Robotics, investing and supporting entrepreneurs in developing their businesses. I play an important role in structuring deals, raising capital, and designing and advising go-to-market strategies that enable these ventures to grow to their founder's vision. It is never a tedious job that connects me to amazing people and brings me the opportunity to share their highs and lows along the way.

The world of sports has long understood this: Everything starts in the mind! By coaching leaders and entrepreneurs for more than a decade, I realize that most people still struggle to live up to their fullest potential. Not because they don't have the resources but mostly because they lack the tools to develop a Mentality that fosters their attitudes toward a more hopeful, exciting, and compelling future. Zlightly is your companion to make that journey, condensing the experience of top sports athletes into simple, fun, and easy-to-learn principles and actions to boost Productivity and Happiness in the corporate world.
