I am an entrepreneur and private consultant that is actively involved in the community, giving back.

My passion has been delivering though-leading, data driven solutions that impact people's lives and turning ideas into reality.

Most of my core skills rely on bridging mathematics and technology with business acumen to provide data driven solutions to business problems, create new business opportunities and improve processes and decision making.

I have been fortunate enough to help projects in more than 18 countries (across 4 continents) advising and consulting small business owners and global companies, while managing multidisciplinary teams across distributed locations.

Since I remember I was always actively involved with the community around me, giving back, and for over 10 years my involvement with humanitarian causes has been growing.
Apart from being a blood donor, these past years I had the opportunity to promote, with the help of amazing people, the healthy living in Sierra Leone.
I am grateful to be able to provide, since 2016, computing power to advance cutting-edge scientific researches on topics related to health, poverty, sustainability and others.
My actions demonstrate my belief that real power comes from serving and loving others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a platform that helps one fulfill specific needs:

1. Certainty: One will guarantee a place to stay, comfort and a nice person on the other side.

2. Uncertainty: We are all different, we cook in different ways, we speak different languages. This helps one change one's life from the certainty one has been having.

3. Significance: Who doesn't like to feel special?

4. Connection: By getting in contact with people in a peculiar way, it helps one to connect with others and spread your warmness. Deep down we all care about establishing strong bonds -- that is all to do with emotions.

5. Growth: Who knows the experience and the value that another person has and is willing to share with you? It'll help you grow and raise your standards in all sorts of ways.

6. Contribution: By helping the other person in your country or being helped by the other where they are living is all about contribution. You give a lot from you: experience, culture and trust.
