A MESSAGE FROM OUR FOUNDER

It took a long time 

to get here


But the journey was more than WOrth it.

After years of sharing my deep love and natural aptitude for technology and leadership in rooms that lacked diversity of all kinds, I knew it was time for a change. Women and other aspiring technology professionals shouldn’t have to search so hard for sponsors or mentors who look like them.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR FOUNDER

It took a long time 

to get here


But the journey was more than WOrth it.

After years of sharing my deep love and natural aptitude for technology and leadership in rooms that lacked diversity of all kinds, I knew it was time for a change. Women and other aspiring technology professionals shouldn’t have to search so hard for sponsors or mentors who look like them.

I started Tech & Thrive because I want to make a lasting impact as a consultant and coach who can lend a unique viewpoint in an industry whose future depends on diversity.

So that you can:

  • Develop unshakable confidence in your own abilities and expertise
  • Discover a deep bench of supportive allies and mentors who will encourage you to take a seat at the table without sacrificing yourself
  • Overcome the hidden barriers in tech and industry obstacles that suck your energy and fuel harmful self-doubt

What I want 

for you


To live each of the core elements of my T.H.R.I.V.E. OperAting System™

My struggles and years of leadership research led me to create an "operating system"—initially geared for driven women and diverse professionals who want to break free from the tech world's barriers. It serves as the foundation for much of my individual and group coaching work—providing practical and inspiring tools to empower personal and professional growth.

A little more

about me


I’m the proud daughter of Dominican and Puerto Rican parents who immigrated to the U.S. and started a small family business, Hi-Tech Tune Up, a service station and mechanic’s shop in Orlando. I grew up being my father’s assistant because my small hands fit in places his didn’t, and later learned how to interpret state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment for him and the mechanics.

Technology became my superpower and led me to a 25-plus-year career in technology leadership. Today, I am a mom, sought-after speaker and consultant, the executive board chair for the Association of Technology Leaders in Independent Schools (ATLIS), and a passionate champion of girls and women in technology.
