Meet Mariana Torrescasana
Mariana Torrescasana was born and raised in Brazil, and Portuguese is her first language. Wanting to see the world, she moved to america in 2004. She soon met her husband and decided to remain. She studied at San Diego State and received a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and Marketing in addition to a Minor in Spanish. She has been with Liquid Web since early 2020 and lives in Austin, Texas along with her husband and two children.
Why did you join Liquid Web?
In 2020, I worked at a digital agency, and the Nexcess Team was one in every of my clients. I loved working with the team, and when a chance to hitch the team got here up, I jumped right in. I find it refreshing that our leadership asks for feedback and incorporates it, in addition to having many women in leadership roles in all departments.
What draws you to the hosting industry as a profession?
I’m keen about systems, innovation, and enabling users to succeed. The hosting industry attracted me because I’ve observed how online businesses and private blogs have significantly increased the necessity for internet hosting services, servers, and domains, allowing the industry to grow.
In your eyes, what is the difference between Liquid Web and other employers?
Liquid Web truly cares concerning the people within the organization. There’s a robust work/life balance here, and a real sense of community and family. Folks look out for one another—not only from a piece perspective (managing workload and expectations), but in addition at a private level (encouraging folks to take vacations, spend time with family, and deal with hobbies).
What’s the largest milestone you have completed?
I’m pleased with my part in enabling Marketing to tug segmentation lists by product. That was a limitation attributable to the complexity of our systems, and it took over three months to deliver. Much effort was needed from the Development Team, Data Team, and Technical Development Team, however the result was amazing and life-changing for our marketing efforts. The brand new functionality removed several steps from the previous process and immensely increased efficiency.
Tell us about a tremendous customer experience you may have had at Liquid Web.
Essentially the most positive experience is accessing a lot talent at Liquid Web. While I do not interact with our customers directly, I always see and browse positive reviews about how helpful and friendly our Support and Customer Success Teams are. That, to me, is a mirrored image of what we do internally; we enable our employees with the suitable training and tools they should do their job, and customers see that. It’s refreshing to see the shopper at the middle of the whole lot we do.
What are you known for at Liquid Web? What do people specifically come to you for?
I’m known for marketing strategy, marketing automation, email marketing, marketing systems, sales enablement, reporting and tracking, system integrations, and project management.
What’s one thing you want our customers knew about their hosting?
I wish our customers knew about all of the activities we engage with to support the hosting community. We have partnered with Big Orange Heart to support mental health within the WordPress community. We also partner with Post Status, WordCamp, and Magento Association in an effort to advertise awareness of our revolutionary solutions while also giving back to our community by offering jobs and resources to them.
Work aside, what are a few of your hobbies?
I really like spending time with my husband and two kids—Luke, seven, and Elena, 4. I also enjoy understanding, cooking, organizing, playing, and watching soccer. I’m also a member of our Elementary school’s PTA and love supporting them as needed.
What’s your favorite app?
Instacart! I rarely go to the shop anymore—it’s magical.
Should you could have dinner with one megastar [dead or alive] who would it not be?
Ed Sheeran. He’s one in every of the kindest celebrities and writes/sings essentially the most beautiful lyrics. I’ve seen him in concert but having dinner with him could be the last word dream come true.
