Luis is very good in business strategic formulation and market development. His people skills are superb and he is a team player. I enjoyed working with Luis when he was a BDM at MicroEnsure.

Rehan Butt

Luis is wonderful to work with and has developed exceptional expertise and understanding of micro insurance business development. I have seen him growing at MicroEnsure where he started at an entry level and quickly risen to Business Development Manager position with reputation of being reliable, self-motivated and capable. His get-it-done attitude played an important role in our growth in Kenya in recent years. I believe Luis is a good resource to have in the team and wish him good luck in the long prosperous professional career ahead of him.

Luis is a driven business professional with an entrepreneurial mindset. He is a gifted negotiator who is not only able to create strategic partnerships with new clients but to also maintain strong relationships with them. I have rather enjoyed his habit of mentoring new professionals in the industry and helping them take strides in their careers.
