Soy

Sobre mí

I am María, a journalist specialized in Digital Marketing with 15 years of experience collaborating with agencies, brands, press offices, and media outlets.

Over the past 9 years, I have developed my career as a freelancer, which has given me the opportunity to work with teams from different countries and sectors, and discover my full potential working remotely.

Among my main strengths, I would highlight my commitment to quality work (I enjoy doing things well) and punctuality in all my deliveries: I always meet and have met the deadlines set for each project.

Outside the professional sphere, what I enjoy most is History (especially that of Ancient Rome) and photography (I spend the day taking photos of every little detail that makes me happy or allows me to convey something). Additionally, I am crazy about cats - and animals in general - I love specialty tea and coffee, and in my free time, I enjoy traveling, reading, and working on decoration or craft projects.

I am always open to exciting collaborations that allow me to continue learning and contribute value with my experience.

Shall we work together?
