After launching, working for, and investing in high-growth startups around the world, I am now excited to be building Elenas. Recognized by TechCrunch as one of the top 15 new start-ups in Latin America, we are proud to be modernizing the vital direct sales channel for millions of women across the region.
Before launching Elenas, I worked in the business design department at Polymath Ventures where I helped lead new projects focused on consumer tech. Previously, I've worked in the United States, the Netherlands, and South Africa on communications, growth, and expansion projects for startups in the Aerospace (XCOR Aerospace) and e-commerce/logistics sectors (Pargo).
Feel free to reach out to me at zach (at) elenas.la. I'm always excited to help other entrepreneurs with their businesses, share more about our mission at Elenas, or just grab a coffee and chat.
