Your journey so far

My journey into the creative and content marketing world began during a summer break between high school and university. Eager for a summer job, I reached out to a local design firm, and to my surprise, they asked if I could photograph their branding projects. Despite my amateur experience, I accepted the challenge and started sharing my work on Instagram. Shortly after, I received a DM from Creatively Squared inviting me to work on a paid photography project for a global brand—could it be real? Skeptical but intrigued, I said yes, and that single project opened the door to numerous opportunities. Four years later, I’m now an Account Manager at Creatively Squared, passionate about providing creators the same life-changing opportunities that started my journey.

Your role at Creatively Squared

What I enjoy most about working with customers is the uniqueness of each brand and the distinct visions they aim to bring to life. I love immersing myself in a brand's values, ideas, and essence, collaborating closely with brand managers to transform their concepts into powerful visual assets that transcend. This collaborative process is not only fun and challenging but also incredibly rewarding.

Your superpower

I like to think of myself as an extension of your brand. When managing customer relationships and creative projects, my superpower is my drive for excellence and my passion for both branding and content creation. This combination enables me to deeply understand a brand’s vision and translate it into actionable briefs that set both our creators and customers up for success.

Creatively Squared highlights

One of my favorite moments at Creatively Squared was working on a project for Cesar’s Dog Food. The goal was to present dog food in an upscale way, resembling restaurant photography. It was a challenge, especially since the brand wanted to collaborate with four Mexican creators, and we had only worked with one before. As a Mexican, I had the privilege of reaching out to colleagues I had admired from afar and was thrilled to work with them to bring the brand’s vision to life. The final gallery turned out amazing, the brand loved it, and it was incredibly fulfilling to share such a great opportunity with other Mexican creators.

Hobbies and interests

Both in and outside of work, I’m a huge fan of storytelling! I’m currently drafting a children’s novel that I hope to publish one day, and I’m also working on a project that narrates audio stories for kids. Additionally, I enjoy exercising, spending time with family and friends, and baking sweets whenever I get the chance.

Fun fact: My favorite book is The Things We Cannot Say by Kelly Rimmer—an incredible and gut-wrenching story inspired by WWII. I have two rescue dogs named Pulgas and Mechas; they are eight years apart but look like sisters. I also enjoy singing in my free time!
