Nestor Villalobos
Business leader, speaker, mentor and Ironman finisher, Nestor's boundless energy is contagious. With BS and MBA degrees from Bentley University, Nestor started his career in product management launching hundreds of consumer products for Dell and CompUSA. After escaping the corporate world (with his soul mostly intact), Nestor entered the world of entrepreneurship by starting and even purchasing several startups and small businesses. Since 2016, Nestor has served as the Vice President of Sales & Marketing for Sharp Marketing, one of South Florida’s most innovative and fastest growing promotional product companies.
Dubbed The Ironman Entrepreneur because of his affinity for athletic challenges and his successful completion of multiple Ironman Competitions, Nestor believes that many of the same principles employed by elite athletes during training can – and should – also be used by entrepreneurs.
Nestor’s passion for business and athletics is only surpassed by his passion for mentoring and inspiring the next generation. As an Adjunct Professor of Business at Florida International University, Nestor has taught hundreds of students in courses like International Business Negotiation, Small Business Management and Entrepreneurship.
Nestor’s latest endeavor is a company called Resale Hero, a fintech startup he launched in 2020.
