About

I graduated from Babson F.W. Olin Graduate School of Business with an MBA degree, specializing in operations and strategy. My educational background also includes a Bachelor's degree in Biotechnology Engineering from the Tecnologico de Monterrey, where I gained a strong foundation in bioprocesses and manufacturing. With this diverse educational background, I have equipped myself with a unique blend of business acumen and technical knowledge. Throughout my career, I have gained valuable experience across various industries, including Retail, Health-tech, and Food. Working at Wayfair, a leading e-commerce company, as a Performance Advertising Manager, I honed my skills in optimizing support operations, and developing PPC program offerings for suppliers. This experience provided me with a deep understanding of the retail industry, as well as the ability to drive strategic initiatives and deliver results.
