About Alejandra

Hello, I'm Alejandra.

Throughout my career, I've helped build meaningful brands — from global icons to independent ones with their own culture. I've worked at companies like ABInBev, Coca Cola, Alpina, and ErikaLust.

With a background in Industrial Engineering and a Master's in Design Management, I bring structure and sensitivity to every project. I turn human insights into strategy, and strategy into relevant communication and brand experiences that resonate.

What excites me most?
That initial creative phase — where ideas are chaotic, raw, and full of possibility.

How can I help you? Brand strategy and positioning, new product launches, branding and identity, 360° campaigns, content strategy, and influencer marketing. If you're launching something new or repositioning your brand... let's talk.
