About the Push Ambassador Program

Our Ambassador Program continues to improve, constantly seeking automation and transparency. Following the approval of the Push Ambassador Guidelines v1, the DAO Council is looking for a Project Manager from within the ambassadors to assist the three ambassador hubs (Latam, India, and Africa) in the creation and management of Zealy as a new operational and organizational system within the program.

Why Join us as a Project Manager?

The DAO Council has provided feedback to the ambassador hubs based on their monthly reports. It has decided to transition to an automated system like Zealy for task creation, aligned with the monthly narrative of Push Protocol and Push DAO.

  • Work closely with the leaders of each ambassador hub to promote effective collaboration and communication among members.
  • Detail each project and task to be executed within Zealy, including timelines, task categories, and associated resources.
  • Monitor progress, identify potential risks, and proactively implement mitigation strategies for incomplete projects or tasks.
  • Ensure that projects and tasks are completed within timelines, with associated resources, and maintain high-quality standards.
  • Prepare regular project status reports highlighting achievements for both internal and external stakeholders.

Currently, I handle Marketing and Finance for ETH Pura Vida, a project that includes a Web3 Hackathon and Conference. Additionally, I’ve been involved with the Blockchain community, both promoting and taking part in Solidity courses.

I have a broad background in Project Management, spanning various fields such as Education, Marketing, Technology, and Social Impact. As the Country Manager for Forte Global Inc., I am currently overseeing three major projects:

  • In Rhode Island, I’ve designed the open campaign for 100 participants and we’re now in the recruitment phase.
  • In Peru, we’re in the recruitment phase for a new cohort of 150 students.

Each project is designed to build skills and create opportunities in the tech industry.

I oversee projects with teams around the globe, including Sydney, New York, Rhode Island, Puerto Rico, London, Medellín, and San José, Costa Rica. My areas of expertise are Research, Impact, Growth, and Operations. To stay connected and keep everything on track, I use various platforms:

I excel at building trust among team members and always keep a customer-focused approach to identify and address stakeholder concerns. Staying aligned with the strategic plan helps me stay on track with my productivity. Moreover, I possess extensive knowledge in digital marketing, which allows me to turn ideas into concrete actions and guide projects through a successful campaign lifecycle: from analysis and design to implementation, monitoring, control, and finally, closing.

Main achievements:

  1. Solidity Course for Women in Tech: I led a 5-week online course on Smart Contracts using Solidity for 25 women in tech across Costa Rica. This initiative introduced participants to the Web3 space and expanded (reskilling/upskilling) their career opportunities.
  2. Business Management in Web3: Within the Ethereum Community of Costa Rica, I play a key role in implementing best business and project management practices. We use Agile framework to ensure projects are completed on time, within budget, and with high quality.
  3. Social Impact in Latam: The concept of Web3 is still new to many in Latin America. However, the Ethereum community’s efforts have paved the way for IT students’ career growth. I’m involved in spreading Web3 knowledge (covering Starknet, Optimism, Solidity, Cairo, etc.) through university courses, marketing campaigns, and partnerships with related sectors like banking, media, and commerce. We aim to attract up to 350 attendees for the conference and 150 participants for the Hackathon.

How long have you been involved in the Push Community.

Since late 2022, when I attended a talk about Push Protocol and became passionate about the project because it addresses a significant problem in the web3 ecosystem.

How long have you been involved as a Push ambassador, and in which hub.

I have been an ambassador for 16 months. I am part of the first cohort of ambassadors in the Latam hub, the cohort in which the Push Ambassador Program was launched.

Why do you think you would be a good fit for this role?

My experience combines managerial, business, and team management skills, having worked as a manager and project manager in various technology projects, web development for B2B, and projects focused on delivering value in B2C. Additionally, my skills in automation and process control, acquired during my training as an electrical engineer, which I constantly use in project management.

These skills and experience have led me to achievements such as:

  • The best Solidity Course among the 7 ETH Kipu courses held simultaneously in different cities across Latin America in 2023, where I served as project manager and instructor.
  • Winner of the MercadoLibre Digital Entrepreneurs Award at the Ideas Contest, 2019.
  • Record sales in the department where I was project manager and general manager in 2017 and 2018.

Within Push, I am one of the Push en Español ambassadors most involved in designing strategies and tactics for our projects and campaigns. Besides being a strategist, I am a doer, which is why I have engaged in all types of activities for Push, such as leading workshops and talks, negotiating and establishing partnerships, organizing and representing Push at events, and creating value content about Push, both written and in video format, for Push en Español’s social media platforms.

I also contribute to the design of standards, processes, and maintaining the health of my ambassador hub.
Given these precedents, I am confident that as the Project Manager for Zealy, I can improve automation, streamline workflows, and help empower each ambassador hub.

Additionally, I am a results-oriented and people-focused leader. Therefore, I will work to ensure that communication, a positive work environment, and sharing best practices among the various teams are values that represent the Push Ambassador Program across all its hubs.

What tools are you proficient with?

Notion, Trello, Charmverse, Podio, Jira, Google Workspace, GoHighLevel, to name a few tools in which I am proficient within the role’s category.

Throughout my engineering career and professional journey, I have used hundreds of tools. Learning to use new tools and becoming proficient in them is something I find easy.

Describe 3 of your main achievements as a Push ambassador:

Consistency and Commitment to Push Protocol:

I have consistently provided high performance as an ambassador, ranking in the top 1 or 2 of Push en Español month after month for over a year, reflecting my dedication to Push Protocol.

Leading Projects with a Focus on Generating ROI for Push:

I co-organized and led Push Protocol’s representation at the main web3 event in Venezuela, which brought together over 3,500 attendees over 4 days. I conducted workshops, was interviewed live by one of the country’s top web3 media outlets, and organized several high-impact, in-person activities that generated significant follower growth for Push Protocol and Push en Español’s social media channels. It was one of the events that generated the most ROI for Push from Push en Español.

Design and Optimization of Internal Processes:

I designed the audit process for the Latam hub, which significantly reduced errors in the distribution of payments to ambassadors, improving transparency in a critical area of the team.

I have also designed or collaborated on several other processes for Push en Español, such as the strategy for participating in events, social media strategies, and the standards to be met on the blog and X accounts of Push en Español, among others.

In this area, my ability to identify opportunities and bottlenecks in processes, as well as my skills in developing plans and fostering changes in workflow culture, make me confident that as Project Manager for Zealy, I will greatly help the ambassador hubs to enhance their process automation and teamwork.

Together we work better. Keep Pushing :bell::muscle:
