Carolina Velasco

Working for a company such as LinkedIn gives me the opportunity to be apart of a culture that surrounds me with some of the brightest, most encouraging, and competitive friends in the world. I collaborate and educate nonprofit business' how to leverage social media to recruit, market their mission and socially fundraise through LinkedIn. My clients learn the importance of understanding member behavior and making data-driven decisions to thoughtfully attract, engage and inform the world's most talented professionals about opportunities they (possibly) never knew existed. Personally, I am passionate about helping others reach their REAL potential by leveraging social media. I believe social media and technology can be used to socially transform an individual, their community, their access to education as well as the way governments govern them. Traveling, project management and developing emerging markets are three areas I continue to incorporate into my daily work. I am an "eager beaver" consultant, saleswoman, data hungry strategist, therapist and personal cheerleader to familia, amigos and my clients. At the end of the day, my fire is fueled by helping others, help themselves through the use of social media technology. Specialties: Bilingual-Spanish, International market development, Latin-American new business/market development, business development, business strategy, professional branding, corporate branding, employer branding, social media recruiting, planning, contract negotiation, people leadership, "Talk-Sense" communication style, customer-experience optimization, project and process management.
