data-contrast=\"auto\">for America (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.alpfa.org\/\"><span data-contrast=\"none\">ALPFA<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\">), whose purpose is to connect Latino

been on this modern finance journey for the last 25 years,&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">letting our CFO customers&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">know the different challenges and decisions we\u2019ve made to get the Microsoft finance function where it is today.<\/span><span

data-contrast=\"auto\">I\u2019ve seen much of that journey&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">during my time at Microsoft, which is only the second company I\u2019ve worked for.&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">I started as the controller for the Microsoft Peru subsidiary in 1996,&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">which had less than $15 million in revenue and&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">fewer than 10 employees. It\u2019s been a long road<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">&nbsp;from there to where I\u2019m sitting now, looking after the Americas commercial business, which includes Latin America and&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">the<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">&nbsp;original Microsoft Peru<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">&nbsp;office<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">&nbsp;that is<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">&nbsp;now part of a conglomerate of subsidiaries.&nbsp;<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Some stretches of that road were less traveled, as the<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">y say<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">,&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">where I took<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">&nbsp;jobs that may not have made sense in the moment<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">. I went to Microsoft Australia<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">&nbsp;for several years<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">, and that turned out to be an important&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">decision<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">. I developed this sense of loneliness because of the time difference,&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">with only four hours overlapping with the rest of the world<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">, so<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">&nbsp;I learned to make decisions on my own very early.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Then&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">I worked in the Middle East and Africa, based in Istanbul, for about five years.&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Although it was not apparent from the beginning, t<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">hat was one of the happiest assignments for my family and&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">me<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">,<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">&nbsp;our first&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">experience&nbsp;<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">in a Muslim African country.
