I’M MARY

Sometimes the playbook exists.
Sometimes I write it.

Either way, I don’t wait.

The origin story.
Different industries.
Same Mary.

Three continents.

From Ain Dubai at sunset to Aerosmith at Dolby Live Las Vegas, I’ve worked at a standard most people only read about. And I’ve never lowered it once.

It started in Caracas, Venezuela. I was the second employee at a telecom startup that became a regional powerhouse across Latin America. I didn’t watch it grow. I helped build it. That’s where I learned to figure it out as you go, make every resource count, and show up before there’s a plan.

From there, a Hilton launch across South America. Multilingual markets. High-stakes relationships. Hospitality built from scratch. Same instinct. Different industries.

MBA. Cambridge English certification. Five years in London, where my physician parents completed their hospital sabbatical. I didn’t inherit their medical gene. I kept their standard. That foundation carried me into a global corporation. Merrill Lynch. Experian. The Direct Marketing Association. Different industries. Same Mary.

MY AI STORY

The instrument was AI.
The brain was mine.

I’ve spent 15 years working with technology while marketing SaaS, fintech, and cloud services. I understand how systems work and how to use them to build workflows, solve problems, and get the work done. That technology fluency made AI a natural next tool. I used it to build this site and other projects, directing concurrent work on strategy, content, design, and implementation. That hands-on experience led me to help others learn to use it, too.

A role. A project.
The right fit.

I’m open to full-time events or marketing leadership roles and freelance projects. If you need someone who brings creative direction, operational ownership and technology fluency together, let’s talk.
