Hola, I’m Gloria aka Chumi.
I’m a Product Manager with a background in software engineering and UX design—raised in Paraguay, now based in NYC. Over the past decade, I’ve worked across startups and enterprise, leading cross-functional launches, building internal tools, and delivering user-first experiences.
Outside of work, I’m into photography. Mostly travel, food, portraits, and everyday scenes. It helps me slow down and capture what feels meaningful.
I care deeply about women’s and immigrant rights, and using tech to bring overlooked voices forward.
I’m passionate about bringing ideas to life and turning them into thoughtful, inclusive products that make a real impact.

Kind words from people I’ve worked with
“Chumi brings the eyes and experience of a Senior UX/UI designer to all aspects of her software engineering skills, an amazing and powerful combo. Her ability to navigate the important aspect of both was a huge asset to our team. Her code reflects decisions that are grounded in thoughtful consideration and reflective of the team vision. Chumi is a dynamic person to have as a team mate because she is able to provide support to the full range of product development. She is cooperative, organized and communicates her thoughts effectively and with the ease of a diplomate.”
— ELISA BENNETT, SOFTWARE ENGINEER
“An acute sense of direction and a keen eye for details is at the forefront of all of Chumi’s code. She is the Swiss Army knife of a team with an abundance of tools that help organize and progress a team’s direction and thrives both in the planning phase and the implementation. She has a strong sense of collaboration and easily can change directions with each new vision that enters a project.”
— Hannah KEMP, SOFTWARE ENGINEER
“A talented team player, she is resourceful and always curious. Chumi is not afraid of challenges, she loves new technologies and eager to learn and adapt to it. One of the best teammates one could dream of.”
