About

Marketing Executive with 4+ years of experience leading 360° marketing strategies, brand communications, and sales enablement across LATAM. At SoftwareOne, I've grown from a local communications role to regional marketing, managing a CHF 68K budget, coordinating agencies across, and currently leading the Sales Enablement strategy for LATAM: from commercial materials to full marketing-sales alignment. I also bring hands-on experience in mass retail (D1 – Koba Colombia) and international markets (New York), giving me a broad perspective on how to connect brand with business impact. What drives me: building strategies that don't just communicate well, but also that they deliver real business results. → 360° campaigns (ATL, ABM, BTL, digital, PR & events) → Sales Enablement & commercial materials → Internal communications LATAM → Budget management & ROI measurement Languages: Spanish (native) · English C1 · Portuguese · Italian B1 · French B1
