Bilingual copywriter and journalist, I've worked with several production companies (for clients such as MTV and Discovery Networks, both in Latin America), advertising companies (for clients such as Toblerone and Amazon) and digital platforms (such as VICE, Playground and Time Out), creating and developing original content in long and short format. I've also specialized in other more specific areas of content creation such as UX writing, naming and SEO writing. This last skill landed me my current role as SEO specialist for The Latin Times, creating content strategies to improve the site's traffic and audience reach.
