About Me

Fernando, originally hailing from Santiago, Chile, brings over two decades of international experience as an engineer, executive, and entrepreneur. His journey began during his final year of industrial engineering studies when he co-founded a startup focused on innovative IT solutions for the copper mining industry, a sector in which Chile stands as a global leader. This venture's success led him to CODELCO, one of the world's largest state-owned copper mining companies. Over the following seven years, Fernando assumed various managerial roles within the consulting and transportation sectors. In 2009, he embarked on a new adventure, relocating with his family to Boston in the United States, and later to Chicago, Illinois. In 2011, Fernando was handpicked by BP America to join a prestigious leadership program, propelling him through positions across Chicago, Houston, London, and Mexico City. In 2019, he transitioned to the realm of educational services, spearheading the AI & RPA team at Adtalem Global Education. Fuelled by his strategic acumen, Fernando established his own US-based strategy consulting firm in 2019, later assuming the role of senior partner at Morris & Opazo in 2021. Fernando boasts an MBA in Strategy and Business Analysis, along with an MSc in Information Systems, both from Boston University. His academic journey began with an Industrial Engineering degree from the University of Chile, further augmented by multiple executive courses from MIT. His expertise lies in crafting strategic frameworks, governance models, intricate program management, business transformation, and change management. Currently residing with his family in Chicago's southwest suburbs, Fernando, an immigrant driven by a love for exploration, delves into diverse cultures, languages, and history. He savors life's simple pleasures such as music and cooking, while also finding fulfillment in coaching his children's sports endeavors through volunteer work.

Attended the C-Vision International CISO Dinner last night and to sum it up in one word, "Wow!" Incredibly well moderated discussion and investigation into different viewpoints. I appreciate the openness of all the attendees to share their unique experiences and perspectives. I learned a lot, had a ton of fun, and look forward to further events like this!

Recently updated my "event vendors I will NEVER work with again" list, DM me if you're interested in the names and stories. On the other hand, I want to recommend Nelson Soares and C-Vision International who are true partners to our success, and I really enjoy working with. Happy to also share the great list of vendors we liked, as there are many of them, and we've recently had the pleasure of joining wonderful events, which we immediately renewed.

The day was awesome and the evening exceeded my wildest expectations. I've never been to a dinner like that where a table with 12 CIOs/CISOs was focused exclusively on Netskope. Just fantastic.
Thank you for including me!
I look forward to the next time we have the opportunity to meet

I had the pleasure of joining the C-Vision International, Nordics CISO Council Roundtable with a wonderful group of cyber executives. We had a wonderful, insightful conversation and the whole experience was enjoyable. I made great new contacts and reconnected with existing contacts on really important topics that matter to CISO’s and all in cybersecurity. I’d highly recommend joining in any C-Vision event.
