Visionary

Dr. Sergio E. Sanchez brings more than two decades of passion and expertise to his role as Chief Information Services Officer for a nonprofit organization in the USA. In his day‑to‑day, Sergio partners with end users and staff across the country (and even into Europe and the Caribbean!) to ensure everyone can focus on the work that matters most—serving others—while the technology hums along smoothly and securely behind the scenes. Before joining that organization, Sergio wore many hats in healthcare and tech. He helped keep hospitals safe from cyber threats, streamlined life‑science operations so critical systems never missed a beat, and even spent time at Apple, where he led teams of friendly “Geniuses” who solved customer problems with a smile. Early in his journey, he built and supported video games and infrastructure at a well‑known studio, proving that no challenge was too big or too playful. Sergio’s academic path is just as rich: he earned his medical doctor’s degree in Mexico City, then went on to Columbia University for a master’s in computer science. He’s also a lifelong learner with certifications ranging from cloud computing to data privacy—and he genuinely loves cracking open a new puzzle, whether it’s a technical problem at work or a DIY 3D‑printing project in his garage. Outside the office, you’ll often find him coaching youth soccer, sharing scuba‑diving adventures as a certified instructor, or practicing his Italian over a plate of pasta. Fluent in English and Spanish (and happily muddling through French and Portuguese), Sergio believes the best solutions come when people connect heart to heart—and keyboard to screen.
