Cade Castañeda

I am a multilingual project coordinator and researcher with a Master's degree in Latin American Studies and a Google Project Management Certificate. I love keeping complex projects organized and moving forward, working across teams and time zones, and making sure nothing falls through the cracks. I am fluent in Spanish, English, Portuguese, and Italian, and I work best in fast-paced environments where clear communication is crucial.
