What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a partnerships or business strategy role where I can build high-impact alliances across LATAM, own end-to-end lifecycle execution, and use KPI-driven operational improvements to deliver measurable growth.

I’m a results-driven Partnerships and Business Strategy professional focused on partnerships management across the LATAM region. At Catalyst, I manage and develop strategic media and technology partnerships (AppsFlyer, Apple, Singular, Adikteev, Mintegral, Monks, Publicis), acting as the main point of contact for prospecting, negotiations, and strategic partnership execution.

I lead the full partnership lifecycle across 40+ active accounts and have contributed to a projected revenue pipeline of over R$7M through client and brand acquisition (e.g., Casas Bahia, LATAM Airlines, Magazine Luiza, Walmart, XP Inc.). Previously, as a Business Development & Account Management Lead, I implemented HubSpot and integrated analytics tools like Mixpanel and AppsFlyer, managed 10,000+ leads across global markets, and supported regional scale-ups by building pre-sales operations and reducing operational costs by 20% through workflow redesign.
