Hola! I am originally from Colombia and immigrated to the US in 2002. Most of my career has been dedicated to serving low-income communities in microfinance, entrepreneurship, and financial education. In 2014, I discovered Strengths-Based Development, which led me to start my own consulting firm in 2017. Since then, I’ve been helping leaders create more inclusive work environments. In the summer of 2022, after overcoming a midlife crisis induced by COVID-19 loneliness, work disengagement, and illness, I decided to leave my corporate job and pursue my business full-time. Over the past couple of years I wrote a book and did some traveled. I am currently working toward my Primordial Sound Meditation Teacher Certification with Chopra. My book, "Love Is the Path," emphasizes the need for love in the workplace, defining it as "a commitment to the flourishing of others through curiosity, empathy, and genuine concern for their well-being." I look forward to learning from all of you and redefining what it means to embody love in the workplace and beyond! :) I love hugging trees and working over Zoom with Valerie, my 25-year-old daughter, who currently resides in Colombia.
