As a team member or leader, Carlos earns my highest recommendation. He has a long successful track record working in multinational companies and environments, which gave him the ability to adapt perfectly to any critical situation. I had the pleasure to work with him for several years and know him as a sharp analyst. Soft skills like languages and negotiating come perfectly naturally to him. I always would like to have him in my team.
