Hi, I'm Pedro 👋

Tech Co-Founder & CEO. Love building tech products and businesses.

About Me

An entrepreneur at heart, my first business was selling water back in 2nd grade - for which I got suspended 🤔.

I studied at Boston U where I held various campus jobs and interned at EO. Afterwards, I spent a year in LA working at Poppin, a ventured-backed office furniture startup. Moved back to Colombia in search of bringing innovation to the region. I started a set of retail chains aiming to replicate the Marshalls model, and worked for one of the first e-scooter startups to launch in Colombia.

I then started Preki (Shopify for LatAm) alongside three co-founders, successfully growing it to over 120,000+ stores across LatAm and raising close to a million dollars. While acting as the CEO, I also managed the entire product development process (CPO), data-analytics, CX, and other crucial departments.

While building Preki, we realized non-tech businesses lacked access to data-driven communication tools to improve customer retention and sales. This realization led us to build Clientti, an automated data-driven messaging platform specifically designed for non-tech business. As the CEO of Clientti, my job was focused on providing non-tech businesses with access to top-notch tech products that previously only tech startups could leverage to grow their businesses.

Now, I'm eagerly seeking my next challenge. I'm enthusiastic about honing my skills as a Product Leader and collaborating with a dynamic team to create something remarkable.

I'm also teaching myself to code, being already proficient in HTML, CSS, and JS. Currently, diving into React and Backend Dev.

Some of my projects

YC Motivation

Simple JS project to provide motivation based on YC's guidelines. The project basically randomizes three arrays to make it seem like a group of partners is giving you some words of advice. Oh, and it has a touch of Colombian flair.

Pico & Placa Checker

Bogotá keeps changing its vehicle mobility rules, and I grew tired of remembering them. So, I created this cool checker that tells me if I can drive my car on any given day or not.

Rock, Paper, Scissors Game

The classic game: You vs. the machine! Just generate a game and play against the computer.
