An entrepreneur at heart, my first business was selling water back in 2nd grade, for which I got suspended 🤔.
Fast forward through Boston U and some startup adventures across LA and Colombia, I co-founded Preki (YC W21), a "Shopify for LatAm" that grew to over 120,000+ stores across Latin America. We raised close to $1M in venture capital and I wore every hat imaginable as CEO/CPO - from product strategy to data analytics to customer experience. Building and scaling a platform across an entire region taught me what it really takes to create products people love.
These days, I'm a Senior Group Product Manager at R2, where I lead technical product strategy, marketing, and product design. I work on complex challenges spanning GenAI systems, identity & risk platforms, event-based marketing, and funnel optimization - basically building products that solve real problems at scale. Recently led the full GenAI infrastructure build at R2, which led to Twilio recognizing the company as one of its 20 AI Spotlight Honorees.
I'm also teaching myself to code. Already proficient in HTML, CSS, and JS, currently diving into React and backend development. There's something magical about being able to build things from scratch - it makes me a better product leader and honestly, it's just fun.
