Victor has been an important foundation to the success and evolution I've had as a first-time founder and CTO, a dynamic I was unfamiliar with back then. Our experiences relate a lot, as Victor also started in leadership/responsibility positions since a very young age. It's almost like seeing an "older me" in front of my screen. Since the two years we've been working together, we touched on a variety of different subjects, from leadership to technical, from networking to personal improvement. Victor's approach to mentorship is interesting, in the sense that he tries to relate everything to his personal experience (even the craziest things I come up with), which makes the entire experience easier to digest and actionable. Also, as my company evolves in terms of new hires, fundraises and logistical/technical challenges, Victor is always able to help. Overall, I'm very pleased with the experience and I can't recommend Victor enough. Doesn't matter where you are at in your journey, I'm 100% confident that Victor will be able to provide the insights that you need to avoid making costly mistakes and 100x your company's chances to succeed.

Victor has been a phenomenal mentor and friend during this journey and I couldn't be more grateful for his contribution into making me a better leader and engineer. The fact that my journey is similar to Victor's in several ways makes the whole experience so relatable. If you're considering Victor to mentor you and make you a better leader, you're definitely in good hands!

ENGLISH Now that my son is an adult and I have more time, I decided to embrace an old dream: opening my own business. After searching a lot for a mentor, I found Victor. The search was worth it: your support has been fundamental in understanding the customer better, creating the product and formatting the most appropriate offer for them. And, above all, he's a great guy, easy to deal with and talk to. PORTUGUÊS Agora que meu filho está adulto e eu com mais tempo, resolvi abraçar um antigo sonho: abrir meu próprio negócio. Depois de procurar bastante por um mentor, encontrei o Victor. A busca valeu a pena: seu apoio tem sido fundamental para entender melhor o cliente, criar o produto e formatar a oferta mais adequada para ele. E, além de tudo, é um cara ótimo, fácil de lidar e conversar.
