specific to your field—so every session feels relevant, practical, and impactful.

Hi, I’m Cristina. I bring over 25 years of experience in the world of design and communication, and I now combine my creative background with a passion for helping others grow as confident, effective communicators through language coaching. My motto is: Rewire your brain to think differently. Live more positively.
I’ve worked with creative teams and editorial departments in cities like Caracas, New York, and Madrid, contributing to projects in publishing, advertising, and brand development. My experience includes roles in editorial art direction, magazine design, marketing collateral, art production in agencies, and event production across a variety of industries.
I hold a Master’s Degree in Journalism with a concentration in graphic design from Temple University (Philadelphia), a Bachelor’s in Fine Arts with a focus on Communication (Magna Cum Laude), a Technical Degree in Advertising & Marketing from Instituto Nuevas Profesiones (Caracas), and a Professional Certificate in Photography from Madrid.
Alongside my design work, I’ve developed a career in marketing and communication—crafting brand identities, advertising campaigns, and event strategies in New York and Madrid.
As a Communication Coach and Language Trainer, I provide my coachees with the right set of skills to excel and achieve your goals, using my background in visual storytelling and journalism to create dynamic, personalized enriching experiences. Whether you’re preparing for a presentation, refining your writing, or just want to speak with more clarity and confidence, I’m here to support your journey.
I currently work across multiple media—web and graphic design, mixed media, and photography—while offering tailored language coaching to individuals and professionals around the world.
In 2020, during the pandemic, I reached out to Cristina for support as I was transitioning to a new role at Amazon in Dublin. We met weekly, and she consistently went above and beyond to help me build confidence in my communication skills. Her guidance, encouragement, and the personalized materials she shared were incredibly valuable and useful.
We’ve stayed in touch, often exchanging ideas and insights on personal and professional development. I highly recommend her Communication Sessions.
