About me: I’m from Mexico City, where I earned a bachelors in business administration, with a focus on strategic management, from ITAM. Before starting the MBA at London Business School, I worked for Club América, the most successful professional football club in Mexico, where I was part of the Sports Intelligence Department, with scouting as my main focus. In my last year there, I also taught a sports analytics course at my former high school.
I’m pursuing an MBA at London Business School to move from the sporting side of the industry into business and corporate strategy within sports. I want to build a strategy toolkit to be part of the decisions that shape how clubs and organisations are run. The London location is a key factor as it offers great access to the global sports business world. London Business School’s diverse community is the ideal place to learn from people with very different backgrounds.
In my free time, I love playing sports like golf and padel, travelling and spending time with my friends.
Three topics I can be approached about: Background in non-traditional industry; studying with a partner; moving to London.
