I'm a Mexican entrepreneur who's been in the tech industry for 15+ years. I've had the privilege to work with companies like Apple and Danone and joined Rappi as early employee. I co-founded Isibit, which started as a business travel platform. Accepted into YC S20. During COVID-19, we pivoted into Plerk, a flexible perks solution. We managed to raise over $12M before being acquired by Minu.mx. Recently, I became part of Latitud, and I'm excited about supporting the LATAM startup ecosystem.
