What I'm looking for

I seek operations roles at mission-driven teams where I can optimize processes, manage vendors and stakeholders, and scale programs while growing into broader leadership responsibilities.

I am a Business Administration professional with 7+ years of experience in project management, financial optimization, vendor and client relations, and cross-functional team leadership. I deliver measurable improvements in operational efficiency, having supported large-scale events, managed multimillion-dollar budgets, and guided process improvements across organizations.

My background spans freelancing and roles at global and regional organizations where I strengthened vendor networks, supported enterprise travel and events programs, and supervised administrative teams. Bilingual in English and Spanish, I combine strategic thinking with hands-on execution to help companies scale operations and maintain compliance.
