B From the concert halls of Europe to the tech industries of the United States, C. J. Santos has created a story across the globe. Bom in Brazil, Santos moved to Switzerland at the age of 18, and earned degrees in both music performance and business administration there. During his next 10 years of “intense” career as a professional musician, he spent most of his time on the road. “I had the honor to perform in the top concert halls in Europe,” Santos said. “It really wore me out to be constantly traveling and performing, but it allowed me to see the world and understand it in its full diversity. This was a unique experience, and I carry its benefits with me to this day” Through these experiences, Santos was able to become fluent in six languages. With these skills under his belt, Santos worked with his wife, who is also fluent in four languages, to develop a small translation business. “Running it with no prior business experience was a challenging but exciting learning-by-doing experience," Santos said. “In addition, the translation industry experienced a massive digital transformation in the last decade.” This brought Santos to an MBA/M.S. program in business analytics and information management, where he got rich experience, knowledge and perspectives in different industries. The program provided him with something he clearly enjoys in life: variety “It helped me take the most advantage of the translation industry's digital transformation. What I gained from the program is more than what I managed in the 15 years in Europe,” he added. As Santos continues to grow his business, he's also working as an advisor.“The world's digital transformation has advanced at high speed,” he said. “To me, it's very exciting to be a valuable resource to those who need help to jump onboard the digital express.” 24.
