Peabody Award-Winning Journalist.
Bestselling Author. Global Keynote Speaker.

1.55M+ cross-platform connections.

A bilingual, multicultural audience spanning the United States and Latin America. Deeply engaged, college-educated, and fiercely loyal to the voice they trust.

The coveted audience brands can't easily reach.

The Opportunity


Mariana's community is bilingual, multicultural, and split evenly between male and female. Nearly half are in the United States. The rest span Venezuela, Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Europe and beyond.

This is not a niche audience. It is a bridge audience — one that moves fluidly between cultures, languages, and markets. And they follow Mariana because she has earned their trust, not just their attention.

Her email list of 20,000 direct contacts gives brands a direct line to her community that no algorithm can filter. Her 11K+ Substack subscribers and 11.9K LinkedIn followers extend that reach into the professional and executive audiences brands most want to activate.
