About Me

Natural leader and entrepreneur skilled in managing people, finance, marketing, financial analysis, data analytics, R, python, SQL, and Tableau. Fully bilingual in Spanish & English. I have a B.S. degree, double majoring in Finance and Management from New Mexico State University. Google Data Analytics Certified. Currently enrolled in the Google Advanced Data Analytics Course. Actively upgrading my skillsets to join a company and grow as a professional.

In my current role, I am a Financial Analyst for GPS Insight in Scottsdale, Arizona. I work directly under the VP of FP&A & the CFO, where I analyze financial data & statements using advanced MS Excel & powerBI skills to evaulate performance metrics, forecast trends and support strategic decision making. I also own my own event company, Lotus Entertainment, focusing on Live Events in Texas & New Mexico.

Outside of professionalism, I spend most of my weekends working out, reading, socializing, trying out a new restaurant, taking a random class on a random topic, boxing, & watching sci-fi movies or DragonBall Z.

Just a simple guy, with big dreams.
