Hi, I'm Cris!

Over the past decade, I have held leadership roles at GoDaddy, Shopify, and Wix, spearheading their Market Expansion efforts in Brazil and across Latin America.
​
At GoDaddy and Shopify, I was responsible for launching and scaling operations from the ground up. At Wix, I led the regional expansion, building new revenue streams and solidifying the brand's presence in key LATAM markets.
​
My expertise is rooted in real-world experience — I know firsthand what drives a successful Go-To-Market (GTM) strategy, from meticulous planning to high-impact execution.
