I developed the entire management process for the insurance broker, I have been in this market since 1992 when I founded my first company.

2. How do you get things done?
Focus and know how to say no.

Elon Musk, simply a visionary who is changing the world.
4. What’s the one secret about your field or industry you wish everyone knew?
It is not a secret, but I would like everyone to know or feel the real emotion of a person who receives an insurance claim, right after suffering an irreparable loss from a family member.
5. What are your predictions for the industry for the next few years?
Expected a lot of growth and opportunities. In Brazil there is a huge market yet to be explored. Year after year the Brazilian insurance sector is growing and there is a blue ocean ahead.
