Consultant · Veteran · Builder
Remote consultant with 10+ years in contact center reporting and analytics. US Army veteran. Slow traveler. Building brands and businesses from wherever I am in the world.
Currently working from somewhere with great coffee
I'm Victor - a remote consultant, US Army veteran, and lifelong learner currently working remotely, traveling with my wife and our dog, Buddy. I was born and raised in Houston, Texas, and spent years building a career in tech before deciding that the traditional path wasn't the only one worth taking.
I served in the US Army as a UH-60 Blackhawk mechanic, stationed in Germany - an experience that gave me discipline, adaptability, and a deep appreciation for seeing the world beyond where you started. After the military, I spent over a decade in the telecommunications and contact center industry, becoming a specialist in reporting & analytics.
In 2025, my wife and I made the decision to see and experience more and build a life around slow travel and location independence. We're not rushing through.
I'm a consultant, a creator, and someone who got tired of trading time for a paycheck and calling it a career. This site is where all of it lives; the work, the brands, the journey. The real version, not the résumé version.
Over a decade of hands-on experience in contact center technology, reporting, and analytics; with a track record of translating raw data into real operational insight.
Reporting & Analytics

Aviation Maintenance · Stationed in Germany
