Progreso Foundation is pleased to welcome a new Project Manager to our team, someone whose path into agricultural development was never a detour, but always the destination.
Rooted from the start in a world where agriculture shapes daily life, our newest colleague built a career guided by a single conviction: that agricultural development must be people-centered, structured, and adapted to local contexts. A Master’s in Management of Agropastoral Enterprises and Organizations gave that conviction a framework; years in the field, with the Ministry of Agriculture, MIRAH, Action Against Hunger, and GIZ, gave it depth.
Across those experiences, the thread remained consistent: analyzing value chains, supporting farmers, and contributing to initiatives that improve agricultural systems in lasting ways. Joining Progreso, he tells us, feels like a natural continuation of that journey.
What motivates him most? Seeing projects come to life on the ground, create real value, and improve the living conditions of communities. That is precisely the kind of energy we want around this work.
Outside the office, he writes, sometimes poetry inspired by rural life, plays football, volunteers, and tends a small garden. We have a feeling all of that will find its way into his work here too.
