I joined ESPN almost 10 years ago after working for two different divisions of the Walt Disney Company: Disney Consumer Products (Global Brand Management) and Disney Latin America (Disney Channel marketing & communications). I now oversee communications for ESPN International (Brazil, Spanish-speaking Latin America and the Caribbean) and ESPN Deportes. A globe trekker at heart and fluent in three languages, I have lived in Canada, Madrid, Rio de Janeiro, Los Angeles and Miami. I now live in Manhattan.
