Being a musician at heart, Daniel has found a way to leverage his innate creativity and adaptability to enhance his roles as strategic advisor, legal-architect and solution finder. He is a shrewd attorney with over 15 years of experience primarily in corporate and financial law and has proven expertise within Central America, the Caribbean and other Latin American jurisdictions. For the past 9 years he has been the Chief Legal Officer and an Executive Director in most BAC|Credomatic entities (Central America’s leading Financial Group with operations in 10 jurisdictions), where he proudly leads a team of outstanding attorneys. Before joining BAC, he received a BCL/MJur degree from Oxford University, an LL.M. from Harvard Law School and worked as a partner at LatamLex and as a law professor at the University of Costa Rica.
He has been involved with the Association of Corporate Counsel (“ACC”) for almost a decade and has served in the Advisory Board for the ACC’s GC Summit since its inception in 2015; therefore, he eagerly joined the AAEC to help promote collaboration and cooperation among the in-house community in Central America as a way fostering the professional excellence, ethical standards and well-being of its members.
In addition to his work as an attorney, Daniel has been involved with several startups, is an avid hiker and firmly believes in the importance of social responsibility and mindfulness for personal and professional success.
