What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow as a journalist, engage with diverse audiences, and cover exciting esports events.

I am an esports journalist with over four years of experience covering international tournaments and professional leagues, including League of Legends, VALORANT, Dota 2, and Counter-Strike 2. My journey in journalism has equipped me with the skills to produce high-quality content under tight deadlines, ensuring that I meet the diverse needs of my audience in both Spanish and English.

In my role as a Senior Esports Writer at CodigoEsports.com, I covered major esports tournaments across LATAM and international circuits, participated in press conferences, and produced breaking news, long-form articles, and live event coverage. My previous experiences have also allowed me to hone my skills in SEO content creation, player interviews, and adapting content for various platforms, ensuring maximum reach and engagement.

With a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism from Universidad Santa María, I have a solid foundation in news writing and editorial planning. I am passionate about storytelling and committed to delivering insightful and engaging content that resonates with esports fans and the broader gaming community.
