hi, I’m Ileana.

Or ile for short.

I’m passionate about the magic that happens where communities, culture, strategy—and most importantly, people—intersect. That intersection drives my best work: finding ways to connect bold ideas to real, meaningful impact. I thrive in environments where brand is not just about aesthetics, but about resonance and how people feel, remember, and trust what you stand for.

As a seasoned brand and marketing leader with 15+ years of experience shaping high-impact narratives, creative ecosystems, and cross-functional teams, I bring a unique blend of strategic insight, creative rigor, cultural nuance and operational excellence to the table.

Whether I’m building strategy or building community, my approach is always rooted in collaboration, authenticity, creativity, and deep cultural insight. I truly believe that the most powerful work happens when you bring people together with purpose and intention.

I’m drawn to work where story, insight, and nuance come together to create something people can feel. If that’s where your work lives too, I’d love to connect and learn more.
