Bilingual AI-Savvy Project Manager (Spanish/English) with a robust track record of leading digital transformation initiatives and AI-integrated projects across diverse industries, including hospitality, retail, manufacturing, and transportation. A proactive self-starter with over a decade of experience in managing cross-functional teams and driving results in fast-paced, high-impact environments.

I specialize in leveraging AI-driven tools such as Jira, Azure DevOps, ClickUp, Asana, Notion, Trello, and Monday.com, as well as AI-powered platforms like Miro AI, ChatGPT, Copilot for Microsoft 365, and GitHub Copilot to enhance productivity, streamline workflows, and improve decision-making. My deep understanding of machine learning project lifecycles and experience with AI-integrated platforms have allowed me to lead projects that exceed expectations and deliver measurable value.

I worked closely with C-level executives, directors, research units, and development teams to identify tech priorities, manage large-scale digital projects, and optimize customer engagement through technology. I led initiatives involving AI-based automation for QA testing, predictive analytics for customer behavior, and AI chatbots for internal service support.
