Ali es una profesional de primera y lo que más destaco del trabajo que hicimos juntos es, su compromiso y predisposición para cumplir todos los desafíos que se asignan. Siempre busca la manera de cumplir con eficiencia y eficacia.

Elida Moreno

Powerfully efficient is how would you define Alicia's work. I had the opportunity to work with her in the development of social projects in alumni's organizations of the Embassy of the United States in Paraguay. Alicia is a person who never gives up, is committed to her work, is passionate, punctual with deadlines, she loves to learn new tools and skills, she constantly challenge herself to become her best version. If Alicia is part of your team, you are guaranteed success.
