How it Started…

Maria was always a very shy individual, but that was until she discovered talking a lota skill that would take her very far in life, literally. Being born and raised in Caracas, Venezuela, and after obtaining her degree in Marketing and Communications, Maria started working as a content creator at a local marketing agency, where she was soon promoted to Account Manager due to her undeniable interpersonal skills. After a while, she felt like a small piece was missing from her life. She thought perhaps moving abroad, learning a new language, and starting a new life would do the trick. What could go wrong? A global pandemic? LOL.

While the world completely shut down, Maria had only one goal in mind: To continue to talk a lot. So she joined a rock climbing gym and found a job opportunity that allowed her to work from home as an online advisor for L’oreal. Although she was happy with having her cat, Dabbie, as a coworker, she was missing the feeling of being part of a team and, of course, all the other fun marketing stuff.

How It’s Going…

What’s that? A job opening with a stormtrooper? Immediately yes. As it turns out, Maria was the Client Success Manager that Rock Paper Simple was looking for. It could have been her ample experience in client-facing roles or her love of all things Star Wars, but one thing is for sure: She is very happy to be here.

Behind the Scenes…

Just like the rest of us here at Rock Paper Simple, Maria likes coffee a little too much. She has many hobbies and interests in her spare time, maybe too many, but don’t tell her we said that. She loves climbing rocks (and she never stops talking about it), she also surfs, bakes loves photography and traveling because she gets to climb more rocks, obviously.
