Third-Culture and Trilingual

I grew up moving to different countries—and loved it! I was born in Puerto Rico to Venezuelan and Cuban-American parents, moved to São Paulo, Brazil when I was 11, then moved to the U.S to pursue my Bachelor’s. I’m from nowhere but also from everywhere.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

Women’s Network @ NBCUniversal’s mission is to foster women’s professional development and help grow, attract and retain successful women throughout the company. As NBC Sports Next’s Women’s Network Chair, I collaborate with NBCU Diversity and Inclusion to develop programs for members to engage and cultivate leadership and networking skills while building camaraderie with a focus on growing the business, professional development, connecting through culture and community.
