I'm an experienced IT Manager (Project/Product/Program) who completed my Bilingual MBA in beautiful Barcelona at IESE Business School in May 2014 and relocated to Austin, TX to work with IBM Watson. I'm passionate about leading agile teams, optimizing processes, and finding problem-solution fits for clients. With IBM Watson I get to do all of that and more as my teams innovate, imagine, and implement experiences that help usher customers into the Cognitive Era. I'm currently leading Offering (Product) Teams for Watson Explorer, Watson Knowledge Studio, and Watson Discovery Advisor.

I'm naturally energetic and curious about many areas which leads to involvement in entrepreneurial and social ventures in addition to my full-time work experience. This translates into 12 years experience in Enterprise IT Project Management and Business Analysis while also running my own companies and leading a Board of Directors in professional and academic organizations. I've always been passionate about coaching/mentoring and have 6 years formal public speaking and leading others in their professional development path.

Personally, I enjoy yoga, meditation, mindful eating, traveling, latin dance, and reading. Check out my profiles for more detail. Let's connect!
