Profile

Execution-first delivery operator. I'm the person who closes open loops — I take messy, high-stakes initiatives with many moving parts and turn them into tracked timelines, documented next steps, clear owners and explicit deadlines, then follow through every week until they ship. 20+ years driving complex, concurrent projects across banking, pensions, insurance and other highly regulated environments, owning the largest account in the office and reporting KPIs straight to C-level. Today I build and run an AI agent squad that operates as a PMO — agentic tools that track delivery, surface bottlenecks and hold the operation accountable — so I bring both the operational discipline and the technical fluency to manage engineering, vendors and partners. Comfortable managing up, pushing back when a deadline is at risk, and favoring swift, metric-driven execution over theoretical frameworks. MBA, Tecnológico de Monterrey.

What I Bring to the Role

Closing open loops & relentless follow-through · meeting cadences that produce documented next steps, owners and deadlines · cross-functional coordination across engineering, compliance, finance, marketing and external vendors · building agentic tools that automate how internal initiatives are tracked and managed · vendor & bank-partner / integration delivery · managing up and holding senior stakeholders and partners accountable · thriving in ambiguity inside a hyper-growth, fast-paced environment.

Experience
DIGITALHUBASSIST AI & AI4MANAGERS·Founder & Head of AI — Delivery & Agentic Operations
2024 – Present · digitalhubassist.ai · Remote
  • Built an agentic PMO from scratch — designed and run an AI agent squad, coordinated under a single supervisor with a human approval gate, that operates as the central nervous system of delivery: it tracks initiatives, assigns owners and deadlines, escalates blockers and enforces weekly follow-through.
  • Execution & tracking discipline — Tracked and closed 100+ concurrent delivery cycles end-to-end with explicit QA and client-approval gates before anything is marked done — closing loops above all else.
  • Builds agentic tools that automate operations — Shipped production AI agents, integrations and automations for paying clients across fintech and healthcare; this work earned DigitalHubAssist a partnership with Anthropic (makers of Claude), with partner-exclusive access to the Claude Certified Architect track.
