Co-Founder & CEO
2021 - 2022
Analysing the second hand fashion market in Latin America, we found that professional second-hand fashion sellers were primarily using social media as a sales channel. We understood that while social media allowed them to engage closely with their audience and create entertaining content, it lacked the structure and features needed for building scalable businesses. To address this, we created Ropstar - a video shopping marketplace that combines the fun and engaging aspects of social media with the tools needed for professional sellers to build loyal audiences, establish strong brands, and scale their businesses effectively. We built a cross-functional team of 20 and as CEO, my main responsibilities included fundraising, product strategy and vision, go-to-market and seller acquisition, operations and data.
