@florenciacastro
I’m a data-minded marketing and operations intern building digital presence and pricing insights for growth.
What I'm looking for
I’m a final-year Business Administration student at Universidad de los Andes (Honor Diploma) with hands-on experience across digital marketing, financial analysis, and operations.
At Ski Portillo, I built Portillo Tours & Travel’s digital presence from the ground up—launching Instagram to 500+ followers in under three months, supporting top-performing content, and rebuilding the website in Spanish, English, and Portuguese to increase organic traffic.
I also translated analysis into decisions for leadership: I conducted fuel cost impact analysis on transport margins, modeled tariff adjustment scenarios, and presented findings to senior management, who approved a tariff increase. I further support the business with management reports that consolidate P&L, occupancy, payroll, cash flow, and FX data, and I’ve updated 2026 season pricing spreadsheets using inflation and competitive benchmarking.
Beyond marketing and finance, I drive execution—onboarding the Urvan transport management system, identifying UX gaps, and relaying feature requests to developers. I’ve also co-founded AvalDigital to build brand presence from zero, and I bring adaptability from academic and remote experiences across Australia, the U.S., and private tutoring.
