Alvaro started his professional career as an architect (designing beautiful places and spaces, not systems ), successfully designing, project managing, and completing large residential and commercial construction projects in Venezuela, Trinidad, and the USA.

Since 2018, Alvaro moved to the financial services industry, becoming one of the transformation leaders for the London Insurance Market, working with Lloyd’s of London, the International Underwriters Association, and DXC Technology.
