ROMA G. VELASCO
PRODUCT MANAGER | Integrated Work Teams: CrimpChimps From more than a decade of working in different industries; lived, worked, and studied on two continents; and traveled on four continents, I take pride in the diversity of my experience and outlook. I also love to bring in the skills and knowledge I gained from providing services to and working with people from a wide range of demographics. I combine my passion for sports and human performance and applying its principles in the workplace -- while leveraging the power and value of a diverse team, not just in composition but also in experience, knowledge, and skills. Outside work, I train for and participate in various sports such as rock and ice climbing, running, cycling, and triathlon. Participating in sports later in life, as an adult, has benefited me significantly in my personal and professional growth. There's so much about human and sports performance principles that can be applied in other aspects of our lives. What I'm reading: Goodreads.com/RomaGVelasco
