I am an Industrial Engineer and have a degree in Business Sciences, an MBA, and completed the SAP Consulting Master’s program in 2014. Since that year, I have been working at CUVIV Business Services SL. I started as a finance consultant, but shortly after, I joined the company’s management team as one of the new partners. Despite beginning as a finance consultant, my role has evolved into a more managerial and commercial profile, allowing me to explore various SAP modules.
