Andrea started her career in Payments at Visa Europe and her path gradually took her to work closely with merchants. Helping them improve their payment operations incorporating new innovative solutions to drive efficiencies, she decided to move on to the "other side of the fence" and take on the challenge to be the person leading the payments strategy and implementation. She is now Head of Payments at a fast growing OTA steering the company through the biggest opportunities in the payments space delivering sizable results across KPIs. A payments evangelist, Andrea takes pleasure in championing the value of the payments function whilst navigating, mapping, and contributing to its ever-evolving ecosystem. Originally from Argentina but a European resident for over twenty years, she enjoys traveling, tennis, skiing and spending time with her husband and 2 sons.
