Hi, I’m Andre Dela Pasion. 

I am an Economist, Business Development Leader, and Digital Transformation Specialist with over 15 years of experience bridging the gap between economic analysis and practical business strategy.

My career spans across fintech, digital brokerage, e-commerce, telecommunications, and academia. I specialize in operational digitalization, vendor management, spatial economic analysis, and scaling cross-functional teams to drive growth and elevate customer experience.

I hold a PhD in Economics from the University of Santo Tomas, where my dissertation focused on the spatial spillover effects of transportation infrastructure on Philippine economic growth under the guidance of Dr. Manuel Morga. I also earned my Master of Arts in Economics (Cum Laude) from UST with a thesis on seaport facility efficiency, and completed my BSBA in Economics at the University of the East as a scholar of the City Government of Makati.

My specialization is in spatial econometrics, regional economics, and comparative economic systems, which are fields I have long been passionate about. Building on my background in economic systems, I have spent the last five years cultivating deep expertise in cryptoeconomics and tokenomics. As I continue to study and analyze the mechanics of the decentralized blockchain economy, I remain focused on mastering both the high-potential opportunities and complex challenges of this emerging field

I help also companies modernize, streamline, and scale their operations. From creating seamless online onboarding and e-payment workflows in fintech to building in-house and BPO customer support ecosystems for international telecom and e-commerce brands like Circles.Life and Lazada, my goal is simple: eliminate friction and deliver measurable results.

• Process Optimization: Streamlining client management, KYC, and service delivery.
• Customer Experience (CX): Integrating modern platforms like Zendesk and leveraging analytics to enhance support performance and retention.
• Vendor & Partner Management: Overseeing BPOs, merchants, and client networks to optimize service-level performance.

I specialize in streamlining complex operations, a skill I’ve honed while managing strategic vendor partnerships and customer experience teams for market leaders like Lazada, Circles.Life, MyTrade, and Transcom.

Grounded in real-world application, I’ve also had the privilege of teaching economics to undergraduate students at the University of Santo Tomas and Adamson University.
