I am an entrepreneurial business leader with over 14 years of experience in business operations, marketing, and trade marketing. My journey has been marked by a proven track record of launching successful ventures and leading large teams to execute high-impact marketing strategies. I thrive in fast-paced environments, leveraging my creative problem-solving skills to cultivate long-term partnerships with suppliers and clients.

As the founder and manager of La Taquería Bolivia, I pioneered the first Mexican fast food concept in Santa Cruz, significantly boosting brand presence and customer engagement through innovative marketing initiatives. My experience spans various roles, including marketing manager and operations manager, where I have consistently driven revenue growth and optimized operational performance. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, with a working knowledge of German and Portuguese, which enhances my ability to connect with diverse audiences.
