Con mas de dos décadas de experiencia trabajando en marketing, comunicación y ventas para algunas de las marcas más destacadas a nivel nacional e internacional, y movido por las carencias que encontraba en mi día a día a nivel de comunicación decidí embarcarme en mi propio proyecto, dando vida a www.sonidoeiluminacion.com
Gracias a un enfoque en contenido de calidad y objetivo en el sector AV enfocado en la comunidad hispano parlante alrededor del mundo, www.sonidoeiluminacion.com se convirtió rápidamente en un referente dentro de nuestro querido sector. No obstante, el éxito de esta iniciativa me llevó a ver la necesidad de expandir nuestras fronteras y diversificar nuestra oferta.
Tras tres años de trayectoria con www.sonidoeiluminacion.com , decidimos ampliar nuestro porfolio de marcas con www.integracion-audiovisual.com, lo que nos ha permitido especializarnos aún más en el sector AV. Poco tiempo después se incorporaron www.AV-red.com y www.Noise-TV.com y Smart-AV
Fue así como surgió Noise Comunicación, un grupo de medios especializado en el sector AV de habla hispana, que da cobertura a mas de 350k visitantes mensuales alrededor del mundo.
A lo largo de estos años, he tenido el honor de trabajar junto a un equipo talentoso y comprometido que comparte mi visión, amor y dedicación por el sector audiovisual. Creemos firmemente en el poder de la colaboración, por lo que en Noise Comunicación nos esforzamos por trabajar codo con codo con nuestros clientes, promocionando sus productos, servicios e instalaciones, y dando cobertura especificas a sus necesidades de marketing y comunicación.
Siempre en busca de la excelencia, la mejora y adaptación a nuevas tendencias, formatos y tecnologías, nuestro éxito radica en nuestra capacidad para escuchar, entender y responder a las necesidades de nuestros clientes y audiencia.

With more than two decades of experience working in marketing, communication and sales for some of the most prominent brands nationally and internationally, and driven by the shortcomings I found in my day to day communication I decided to embark on my own project, giving life to www.sonidoeiluminacion.com.
Thanks to a focus on quality and objective content in the AV sector focused on the Spanish-speaking community around the world, www.sonidoeiluminacion.com quickly became a reference in our beloved sector. However, the success of this initiative led me to see the need to expand our borders and diversify our offer.
After three years with www.sonidoeiluminacion.com , we decided to expand our brand portfolio with www.integracion-audiovisual.com, which has allowed us to specialise even more in the AV sector. Shortly afterwards, www.AV-red.com and www.Noise-TV.com and Smart-AV joined the company.
This is how Noise Comunicación was born, a media group specialised in the Spanish-speaking AV sector, covering more than 350k monthly visitors around the world.
Throughout these years, I have had the honour of working alongside a talented and committed team that shares my vision, love and dedication to the audiovisual sector. We firmly believe in the power of collaboration, which is why at Noise Comunicación we strive to work closely with our clients, promoting their products, services and facilities, and providing specific coverage for their marketing and communication needs.
Always in search of excellence, improvement and adaptation to new trends, formats and technologies, our success lies in our ability to listen, understand and respond to the needs of our clients and audience.
What 3 accessories does the "Elissa Action Figure" come with? -A 5-shot Latte - usually from a local spot or a seasonal Starbs -Mobile phone - love having information & connection at my finger tips -Funky Earrings - nothing wrong with making a bold, fun statement With over 15 years in various Sales-centric roles, I always aim to empower my clients to make purchasing decisions that best suit their unique needs.

I launched my career in Special Event Management & Hospitality, which included Corporate A/V consulting and planning. After a decade-long career of executing 547 special events - and two babies later, I pivoted to Hotels & Hospitality, where I served as the Director of Sales & Marketing over multiple mid-size properties. Just before the pandemic, I made another unique shift into K12 print book sales, working primarily with school and public libraries curating their Children's/YA collections. Most recently, I made a bold career move entering the Tech world, and have never felt more motivated by what I do! The excitement, the energy, the brilliance - all unmatched!
On the days in between, you can find me hiking/exploring with my two kiddos (and cocker spaniel, Duke), working on home projects, learning Italian on Duolingo, indulging in history, or concocting a new dish. Let's connect!

Helping lead the charge of AVIXA's research efforts into the trends and opportunities in the pro AV industry.
