Ask Me About:

My dedication to helping businesses thrive.

I’m dedicated to adding value, acting as a sounding board to help companies turn plans into action.

Profile

I’ve been in banking for over 15 years, working in commercial banking and experienced in developing relationships with medium sized US corporations across a wide range of industries. Prior to joining Bank of America’s team in Charlotte, I worked at Fifth Third Bank, HSBC and Citi, helping generate significant revenue from lending and non-lending products including acquisition financing & structuring, global cash management, FX, interest rate and commodity derivatives, trade and supply chain financing. I spend several years working in New York City, Washington DC, and happy to call Charlotte home. 

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time on activities that have a positive impact on my work-life balance and my family life. I was born in Peru and have two young girls,  I’m very proud of the banking profession that I have been part of all these years – banking is an essential and stimulating profession, serving and advising our clients to optimize their return and growth.
