Ronald Barreiro

"Tesa was a joy to work with—eager, intelligent, persistent and pleasant. She quickly learned the ropes of advertising, absorbing every detail about the brand she was handling. Her strategic recommendations were always spot on. Her project timelines were comprehensive and concise. Relationship management / client servicing was second-nature to her because of her naturally pleasant disposition. 
 
She was pushed to the limit as a young Account Manager, working late hours managing her numerous IMC projects for MILO, a megabrand in the Philippines. She quickly gained the confidence of her team and superiors at Publicis Manila. Her Nestlé clients were amazed at how fast she absorbed the history and strategy of her brand." (1/2)

Meet Your Mentor

I draw from 20+ years of journalism and TV news experience—from anchoring live news shows to moderating high-stakes political debates—in creating content and courses that have already helped my mentees, former university students and teams at work thrive in their professional pursuits.

Throughout my career, I’ve delivered high-impact storytelling across top-tier platforms, including BBC World, MSNBC and NBC, CNN International, Al Jazeera English, and CBC. My expertise extends beyond journalism—I’m passionate about meaningful communication, helping organisations navigate geopolitical challenges, and developing strategies for growth and community building.
