Lilliana  Aivars

A Latinx ENFJ who thinks best when her bpm is at 165.

As I prepare to cross the finish line of my Santa Clara University degree, I can't help but feel a rush of excitement about what's next. With a diverse background in everything from Marketing to Merchandising, and from Ethnic Studies to Communications, I've explored a kaleidoscope of interests and disciplines that have shaped me into the creative and curious person I am today.

Got a marketing opportunity that's equal parts data geek and storyteller? I'm your gal! I love getting elbow-deep in data, uncovering juicy insights, and turning them into eye-catching campaigns that grab attention and drive sales. So if you want a marketing maverick who can spin numbers into gold, let's chat!
