About

I'm Dario, part-time writer, part-time consultant & part-time software trainer

I make sense out of complexity, understand gaps in systems, and help people get things done with the right software tools.

I've always been fascinated by how the right software can transform the way we work. My journey began with an engineering background where I discovered the power of automation with Excel and CAD scripting. From there, I moved into business consulting at Bain & Company, where I learned strategic thinking and mastered advanced data tools. I then took on systems leadership at a non-profit, transforming their operations using tools like Airtable. Eventually, I became a content creator and built CombiningMinds to share what I've learned through courses and consulting.

I now split my time between writing, consulting, and training - helping people and businesses work smarter through:

  • Writing on my personal blog (OneStaggeringMind.com) and here at CombiningMinds.org
  • Consulting for small businesses to streamline their operations, build Excel models, and develop analytical capabilities using dashboards
  • Training individuals through courses on productivity tools like Logseq and Tana

My goal is simple: make complex software accessible so you can focus on what matters most.
