Geek with an MBA
Need help making sure that your IT is aligned with your business needs? That you're using your spreadsheet to its full potential? That your processes are efficient enough to let you focus on what really matters?
A former IT/Strategy consultant at Accenture and Booz Allen Hamilton and with an MBA, I use my double background (IT/Business) and hands-on approach to solve complex business problems with focused computer tools, such as:
-developing custom apps (web/mobile) to enhance productivity (with the Genexus cross-platform business application framework)
-normalizing, refining and making sense of massive amounts of messy data (hint: Excel is not the right tool to do it...)
-devising financial analysis/forecast taking uncertainties into account and comparing different decision scenarios (now, that's what Excel is good for, especially when you add in sensitivity analysis and tornado diagrams) -automating operational processes to increase productivity and enhance collaboration
-implementing cross-organization dashboards to provide real-time 360° vision on the key process indicators that matter
-etc.
As a Frenchman, graduated in the US (Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management), living in Brazil and married to a Venezuelan woman, I am fluent in English, Portuguese, Spanish and French and am comfortable performing the job in any of these languages.
