I’m Jacqueline Lopez. I started in retail as a seven-year-old, helping my mother with her grocery and hardware store. I graduated as a CPA; I specialized in auditing and practiced it at the Paraguayan Foreign Affairs office before I moved to the US in 2000.

I started my career in the US, selling ads in both Spanish and English. After forming a remote web development team, I was able to support clients in many aspects of their operations. An example of the scope of services is as follows: when Coldwell Banker Bermuda approached me, determined to shift their brand focus, they became the number one luxury living Realtor for the US market. Upgrading their online presence alone wouldn’t have been sufficient; to reach the objective, we implemented a rigorous training program to shift the mindset of their ‘luxury’ agents.

The focus of life took a new turn when I met my life partner, who endured multiple cancers. My vision became clearer, and wellbeing became front and center of my interest, which included diving deeper into nutrition, physical attunement, creativity, fun, contemplation, and community.

It was satisfying to see the alignment with my vision in life when I read your company’s core purpose of enriching people’s lives. I wish to be a bridge between people on their path to a joyful and experience-rich life. I’m confident that I can support the business objectives to expand its market footprint in this lifestyle segment..
