6 years of as a freelance financial consultant alongside entrepreneurs and Private Equity professionals, now assisted by AI (Claude for Excel) to accelerate execution and reduce your cost.
Entrepreneurial Drive
Launched Vaguedivague in 2017 (a textile brand manufactured in Portugal), and oversaw all segments of the business including creative aspects (branding, product development, marketing), operations (sourcing, production, logistics, inventory management), business development, as well as financial management (business planning, cash management, accounting) and legal aspects.
Having been both on the investment / banking side and the operational side of business realities, I have acquired agile business sense coupled with acute financial engineering.
AI-power for Excel engineering and strategic thinking
Having integrated AI into my daily Excel practice through the Claude-for-Excel add-in, I am now faster than ever in delivering strategic financial engineering.
My historical experience made me a very fast performer on Excel even before the rise of AI. Now this agility has increased even more by learning how to prompt the AI and verify all its execution.
By contracting my services, you will not only access close to 20 years of financial modeling and investment advisory, you will also access best-in-class use of Claude-for-Excel know-how.
Creative Mindset
Extensive creative background acquired through personal and professional experiences, including the long-time practice of design and drawing, coupled with art direction and branding for my own fashion brand.
This creative and analytical mindset allows me to deliver highly visual financial tables and presentations, and to assit investors and entrepreneurs in strategic thinking well beyond the sole financial aspects.
