My career started the way a lot of good ones do: by figuring things out on my own. Starting as an entrepreneur gave me a ground-level understanding of what small business owners actually face, and that perspective has shaped everything I've done since. From there, consulting for a boutique venture capital firm deepened my thinking around strategic growth and what it takes to move a business forward at different stages. Before joining LPL, I led a team of eight while overseeing the full administrative and financial operations of an agricultural services company, which is exactly the kind of work that sharpens you quickly.
Now, as part of LPL's CFO Solutions team, I work with financial advisors to provide the kind of financial analysis and strategic planning that leads to real, measurable outcomes for their practices. Over 100 client relationships into this role, the work is still as engaging as when I started.
Originally from El Salvador, I moved to the United States in 2019 and now call Honolulu home, which I share with my husband, Omar. Life outside of work looks like the beach, a good book, staying active, and traveling whenever the opportunity presents itself.
