About
I am a global executive leader with a track record of scaling, transforming, and leading technology-driven businesses across international markets. I have built and operated high-growth organizations ranging from startups to multibillion-dollar enterprises, combining strong commercial instincts with disciplined operational execution. As CEO of Stone Group, I hold full P&L responsibility for a global refurbishing and repair enterprise generating more than $200M in annual revenue. I led a successful business turnaround and drove international expansion of refurbishment and repair facilities across the United States, China, and Dubai, positioning the company as a trusted global partner in the circular economy. Under my leadership, Stone penetrated 27+ major telecom operators and leading insurance providers, securing high-value repair and refurbishment contracts with OEMs and carriers while consistently delivering double-digit EBITDA margins through operational discipline and strategic focus. Previously, I helped scale HUBX.com into one of the fastest-growing B2B e-commerce companies in the world, surpassing $1.7B in sales in four years and earning Inc. 5000 recognition. At Brightstar, I led global sales and distribution across 51 countries, managing multibillion-dollar product lines including handsets, accessories, and wearables. As COO of Digicel, I drove digital transformation initiatives, built multinational sales organizations, and launched mobile platforms that generated significant new revenue streams. In addition to my operating roles, I serve as a strategic advisor to multiple technology companies, bringing hands-on expertise in emerging technologies and digital business models. I advise Shield on crypto-based cross-border payment solutions and stablecoin infrastructure, and Nebulai AI on artificial intelligence, blockchain integration, and digital transformation strategies. This advisory work keeps me at the forefront of innovation across AI, blockchain, fintech, and next-generation enterprise technologies. I am known for leading from the front — building high-performance teams, entering new markets, negotiating complex global partnerships, and delivering profitable growth in competitive, fast-moving industries. My leadership style blends strategic vision with hands-on execution, data-driven decision-making, and a strong focus on culture and accountability. Fluent in English, Spanish, and French, I thrive in multicultural environments and excel at building trusted relationships with vendors, OEMs, investors, and enterprise partners worldwide.
