I am a senior executive in global higher education and education technology, with over 20 years of leadership experience spanning academic strategy, digital transformation, and business growth. Across my career — from university leadership to global education companies — I have been driven by a mission to align innovation with institutional purpose, empowering learners and organizations to succeed in a rapidly changing world.

Originally arriving in the U.S. as a first-generation graduate student, I earned tenure as a professor before transitioning into executive leadership. Since then, I have managed portfolios exceeding $200 million and led large-scale initiatives across North America, Latin America, Europe, India, and beyond. My work has focused on building institutional partnerships, scaling enterprise platforms, advancing AI-powered learning and credentialing systems, and connecting education with workforce success.

Trusted by presidents, provosts, chancellors, and policy leaders, I build bridges between institutions, corporations, platforms, and policy organizations — always keeping the learner at the center of every strategy. I’ve collaborated with Research 1 universities, policy think tanks, higher education associations, and edtech innovators to deliver impact at scale.

Alongside my executive leadership roles, I’ve also provided strategic advisory support to education and innovation networks — including PwC, GLG, and Third Bridge — with a focus on growth, digital transformation, and institutional alignment.

Beyond my professional work, I’m deeply committed to the transformative power of education. I believe in fostering environments where learning, technology, and human potential converge — preparing learners and institutions for a future that is global, digital, inclusive, multilingual, and resilient. As a proud father of two boys preparing to enter college, I see firsthand the importance of nurturing the next generation through meaningful education.

I remain committed to leading, advising, and collaborating with mission-driven organizations that seek to make a lasting difference in the world of education. I’m also grounded by a deep spiritual purpose that guides both my professional and personal journey. In my free time, I enjoy time with my wife and family, following soccer, and reading a good book.
