What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters creativity and drives business growth, ideally in a collaborative environment where I can leverage my skills in sales and strategy.

I am passionate about business growth and sales, having built my professional career at the intersection of sales, strategy, and marketing. My experience spans business development, sales, project management, and UX/UI, all aimed at driving results that enhance both revenue and brand value.

Currently, I serve as a Business Development Manager at Captiva, where I collaborate with key industry companies on design, animation, video, photography, and content localization projects, driving growth. My previous roles include leading business development and creative direction for clients like Google Spain, where I successfully boosted conversion rates and optimized creative processes.

As the founder of Góbalo, a creative studio focused on UI, UX, and web design, I have expanded our services to work with leading companies. My commitment to excellence is reflected in my achievements, including winning a design contest organized by Google Spain and managing significant projects for Netflix.
