About me

🎾

A professional with over 26 years dedicated to the online world, primarily in advertising, business development, and commercial operations.

After working across several subsidiaries of the Telefónica Group, I made the leap into the startup world — first at Tuenti, in an international environment surrounded by top-tier tech talent, and then at Jobandtalent, with a mission to revolutionize the employment sector through technology.

In 2016 I co-founded Finect, a Fintech project aimed at building an ecosystem of investors, tools, and professionals towards a new financial intelligence. Since 2022 I served as Corp Dev. & BI Director at Playtomic, a startup operating in 66+ markets worldwide, and a member of the executive committee. I currently serve as VP of Partner Growth at Playtomic, leading expanding markets worldwide (US, UK, Central Europe, and APAC), as well as overseeing operations for PlayTimp, Playtomic’s fitness division.

I am a frequent speaker at conferences, panel discussions, and industry events, and a representative of the companies I've been part of in various sector associations and forums.
