I provide strategic marketing consultation and leadership workshops to enhance outreach and visibility for HabCenter Boca Raton, a local nonprofit serving adults with developmental differences. In 2025, we are in process of revamping the website and creating a brand guidelines book.

Impact:

  • Developing a comprehensive marketing plan and a marketing mind map to increase donations and program engagement.
  • Improving the leadership skills in marketing and communications.

Together with the HabCenter Team, I began designing their 2023 Annual Report (download the pdf here) and concluded 2024 by creating an impactful Year-End Giving Campaign (see the landing page here)Empowering Change, which helped drive donor engagement and promoted the organization’s mission.

Capoeira Para Crescer (Capoeira to Grow)

I created a groundbreaking program to teach the Brazilian Martial Art Capoeira to over 200 adults with special needs in Brazil and the US. Through a solid marketing strategy I secured funding for uniforms, instruments, facility improvement, and events which enabled cultural enrichment and empowerment. In 2024, we secured a grant to produce a documentary highlighting the project’s impact.

Impact:

  • Inspired similar initiatives through global visibility.
  • Enhanced the quality of life for adults with special needs.

ARP Advertising Week – Outdoor Interventions

ARP is a well-respected Brazilian professional organization dedicated to fostering innovation, collaboration, and professional growth in the advertising and communication industries. With ARP, I collaborated with architects, artists and stakeholders to create neighborhood-wide installations symbolizing ARP’s mission. These installations enhanced visibility and community engagement during the ARP Advertising Week Annual event, earning the Most Creative Signs Company in Brazil Award.

Impact:

  • Fostered collaboration across professional and artistic communities.
  • Elevated the event’s profile and audience participation.
  • Received national recognition for creativity and innovation.

Krim Bureau – RecyclingCanvas, Events Furniture and Booths

I developed an award-winning reverse logistics program to recycle banners into designer products, refurbished event furniture, and event booths. This program reduced environmental waste and event costs. Another unique solution for this project is that we partnered with incarcerated women further promoting social responsibility.

Impact:

  • Diverted significant waste from landfills.
  • Reduced costs for event clients.
  • Contributed towards social empowerment and workforce development.
  • Earned the Environmental Consciousness Award in Brazil.

Enjoy The Ride! – Nonprofit for Mountainboarding

I founded Enjoy The Ride! in 2004 to promote mountainboarding through  events, youth outreach programs, video productions, social media and community skill-building. Enjoy the Ride! introduced premium equipment to local athletes and was responsible for organizing eight consecutive years of national and international competitions.

Impact:

  • Built a vibrant mountainboarding community in Brazil.
  • I inspired athletes with personal success as a Latin America Master Champion.
  • Positioned the organization as a global leader in mountainboarding.
