Natalia Salas

Natalia Salas

Hi! I'm Natalia Salas, a Senior Financial Consultant, Microsoft MVP, and passionate advocate for inclusive, intelligent BizzApps. With over a decade of experience implementing and optimizing MsDyn365FnO, I bring deep expertise in financial processes, global regulatory compliance, and solution design across multiple industries and geographies.
But I’m not just about debits and credits. I’m also a curious soul who loves exploring everything that intersects with Finance in the Microsoft family, from AI Agents and Copilot to Power Platform and beyond. If it helps automate, clarify, or empower, I want to learn it, use it, and teach it.
Community is at the heart of my work. I regularly share functional insights on my blog, mentor newcomers, and co-founded Futuro 365 and HOLA FnO, initiatives focused on helping diverse professionals begin their journey in the world of business apps.
I’ve spoken at global conferences, led technical sessions, and love turning complex processes into practical, human-centered stories.
I’m here to make Finance feel less scary, more empowering... and maybe even a little fun! ✨
