I am an Account Executive at Advance Funds Network, where I specialize in helping small and mid-sized businesses secure the fast working capital they need to thrive. My professional drive is fueled by a lifelong history of discipline and intensity, rooted in my years competing in MMA and playing hockey as a right wing and defender. Whether I am navigating the financial world or exploring the rugged landscapes of Chile and Peru, I bring an active, high-energy approach to everything I do.

My core strength lies in my ability to look beyond the surface of a balance sheet. I have a “hidden” talent for spotting patterns in people and reading situations accurately at a glance, which allows me to match clients with the best possible funding solutions for their specific challenges. I pride myself on maintaining exceptionally high submission approval quality and ensuring that communication remains clear and consistent throughout the entire funding process.
I transitioned into the finance sector from the world of auto sales, where I first discovered my knack for negotiation and financial strategy. Since then, I have built a track record of successfully helping business owners secure funding even when they are facing significant credit or traditional banking hurdles. I view myself as a partner to my clients, focusing on understanding their unique obstacles and delivering results that help their businesses grow.
My academic background is in Geography, a field I chose out of a lifelong passion for travel and a desire to understand the world on a deeper level. This education has complemented my adventurous spirit, moving me to skip the “beach lounging” in favor of immersive exploration in places like Miami, South America, and beyond. It gave me a broader perspective that I apply daily when connecting with diverse business owners from all walks of life.
When I’m not in the office, I stay sharp and centered by hitting the gym six days a week for a rigorous mix of weights and cardio. My Chilean heritage is a huge part of who I am, and I love sharing that culture with my family as “Chef Adrian,” specializing in signature dishes like ceviche and beef empanadas. Above all, my downtime is defined by two things: maintaining my physical edge and spending quality time with my family.
