I am a corporate communications leader with more than 20 years of experience positioning brands, strengthening reputations, and comms strategy.
What I'm looking for
I’m a highly creative senior communications professional with a clear approach to storytelling. I have strong experience developing communication strategies, managing brands, and handling crises to help organizations strengthen their reputation, increase visibility, and drive growth. During my career, I have developed internal and external communication strategies, overseen high-performing teams, and steered brand interests to achieve business results.
Alongside I’ve made some accomplishments, highlighting:
Driving communications for the merger between US and Mexico divisions of PwC; aligned strategies and teams while managing expectations and concerns of Mexican stakeholders.
Building and managing a task force to collaborate on new surveys and studies at PwC, ensuring consistency across siloed operations (marketing, sales enablement, website, and communications).
Generating the largest media coverage for a single event at Alsea to celebrate the 20-year anniversary of Italianni’s brand by planning the event, inviting media and influencers, and promoting the event to reach 2 million people.
Further, I promote cross-functional collaboration to deliver corporate strategy, brand promotion, and product launches. I am eager to leverage my industry knowledge in advancing a large technology company, consulting firm, corporate-level retailer, or entertainment organization.
