Bio
Pedro Aquino
I had the opportunity to work alongside Maria while at PwC, and I must say that it was, without a doubt, a privilege. I can say that Maria is a fast-learning, pragmatic and accurate worker. Maria has superb leadership skills and is always available to help the ones surrounding her. To top it off, she is thriven and ambitious while having a great personality at the same time. Summing up, I strongly believe Maria to be a valuable asset to any firm, and I would be really pleased to work next to her again in a near future.

Her ability to see things through coupled with her can-do spirit have tremendously helped to achieve fantastic results. Especially her brand marketing related knowledge has had invaluable impact on our course of action. I would be very pleased to work with Maria again in the near future.
