I've been working in Advertising Operations/ Web Analytics/ Sales Planning since 2006.

My work experience in online advertising started in NYC in 2006. I had the opportunity to work in many start-up companies that allowed me to learn many tools and ways to reach out goals and meet deadlines. In 2012, I decided to make a professional move, and reallocated to Amsterdam to understand how Digital advertising works in Europe. Now living in this side of the globe, I am able to offer my experience in Online and Mobile that I acquired in the USA.

Currently, I relocated to learn German in Cologne area, Germany. After doing some research in how Digital Advertising works in Europe, German is the third most important language to manage advertising, besides English and Spanish.

My responsibilities have been beyond ad trafficking. I also have developed and maintained strong advertising/business client relationships, web analysis on user experience, inventory management, financial reconciliation with accounts, managed business operations and development, developed strong relationships and worked effectively with colleagues in a range of internal departments, e. g. , Sales, Marketing, Creative/Design, Content/Editorial, Product Development, and Video Production.

I have effectively managed clients’ campaign programs and agencies' requests within specified timeframes, monitoring and tracking assigned projects for effectiveness and many other projects.

Specialties:
*Trafficking Advertising on web sites and mobile thru 9+ different Ad Servers
