In addition to writing, I have had the privilege to expand my management and marketing experience consulting for innovative early and mid-stage companies. I have also worked in the setup, business development and sales (in the English, Spanish and Creole-speaking markets), and national expansion (including franchising) of various US corporations. These opportunities have vested me with experience in branding in all stages of market introduction, from research to strategy to execution.
In 2000, I founded Latin Business Club of America and served the company as Managing Director and editor of latinbiz magazine for thirteen years. Through winning B2B communication strategies, I grew the organization's professional membership to 12,000+ and built a prestigious client base that included: ADT, Aflac, American Airlines Arena, City of Coral Gables, Costco, Courtyard by Marriott, Dewar's 12, DHL, Dunkin’ Donuts, FedEx, Florida International University, Iberia Airlines, Infiniti, Marriott, Metlife, Miami Dolphins, Miami Heat, Florida Marlins (Miami Marlins,) New York Life, Pizza Hut, Sprint, St. Thomas University, Staples, University of Miami, Univision, UPS Capital, Verizon and more.
Speaker & Trainer
In a relaxed and at times humorous manner, I enjoy sharing my marketing expertise and own personal experiences in business to guide other entrepreneurs in achieving professional and spiritual goals.
I'm also passionate about addressing women's issues such as education, women in technology, self-development, healthcare, ageism, economic empowerment, aging, and violence.
Due to my understanding of South Florida's Latin business community, I was invited on numerous television and radio shows and profiled in many business and cultural publications.
