Top revenue generator for the 2024 MLB World Series!
2024 was the first year that Univision aired MLB! We aired the post-season games, as well as the World Series. I was so excited to monetize this property that I also sold packages myself & I quickly became the top revenue generator for the 2024 MLB World Series (including $100K+ of new business revenue!).
New Business Superstar!
During my time at Univision, I've had the opportunity to collaborate with brands of all kinds and sizes. I've supported them in crafting tailored strategies to effectively connect with the Hispanic audience. Here, you'll find a selection of some of my favorite "new business" activations from over the years.

Currently a Sales Leader at Univision
I spent three years as an Account Executive at Univision NY Local TV before being promoted to Local Sales Manager in September 2022. In this role, I also took on the responsibility of managing our Multi-Market Sales Office in New York. Currently, I lead a team consisting of seven Account Executives and three Account Coordinators.
Artist Collaborations!
Music plays a vital role in many cultures. Collaborating with artists and supporting projects with brand partnerships is a powerful marketing strategy.
Copa America 2024 was the largest cultural event of '24!
Managed the top-performing sales team in terms of revenue within Univision's Local division (#1 performer on all fronts- NY Local TV, Multi-Market TV, and Digital).
Passionate About Community Events!
During my time at Univision, I leaned into my passion for giving back to the community. I spent many late nights talking to our Community Empowerment team to understand their vision and goals. As a result of those conversations, I developed strategic & effective ways to monetize our Community events, while also connecting our community to the resources they need. This is a picture from the Hurricane Ida Relief event that we hosted in Sept 2021. I tapped into my relationship with Mattress Firm, who donated over 100+ mattresses to families that were impacted by the Hurricane. This event still holds a very special place in my heart.
Always hosting clients & developing new relationships!
I am deeply passionate about business development and expanding our partner portfolio. This photo was taken at the pop-up Shakira concert in Times Square in March '24, where I had the pleasure of hosting the Morgan & Morgan team.
Hispanics are the leading factor behind population growth in the US!
Engaging with the US Hispanic consumer is a crucial element for the growth of any brand or organization.
Strong, longstanding relationship!
Anyone who has collaborated with Goya as long as I have is considered family! I've had the privilege of working on countless projects alongside Goya's in-house Marketing and Community teams. One of my favorite projects to date was the custom "Brand Spotlight" we created for Premios Soberano, which highlighted their Coconut plant in the Dominican Republic!
Relationships with Pharma Clients!
With my wonderful Novartis client at the Univision Contigo Health Fair in Oct '24.
