Donaldo Reyes
CEO, TIEd
This is my story! Read along.
I pride myself in being a resourceful and creative problem-solver with a curious mindset. I am driven by a mission to make the world a better place than I found it.
As a child, I wanted to be many things: an astronaut, an architect, a robot maker…the list goes on. Each role had its own differences, but one thing was similar about all - they all had a pinch of engineering.
My curiosity for engineering and love for technology led me to study Mechatronics Engineering. Later in my studies, I discovered an excitement for programming and electronics and fell in love with the Maker Movement. This is when it finally hit me.
My true passion...creating things.
My experience spans in entrepreneurship, customer-facing roles, diverse industries and a technical background (I programmed this website from scratch!). Each of which equip me with the skills to adapt and approach challenges from different perspectives. My business acumen and exceptional interpersonal skills also define my professional execution.
With 5+ years of service in a distributed workforce leading software projects, I also found advocacy for the remote work movement. This experience also granted me a "self starter" and "can do" attitude. (And allows me to be anywhere I want!)
I also enjoy the opportunity to foster professional growth in others through leadership. My style - leading with trust and empathy while seeking excellence through empowerment and accountability.
I’m an avid learner, so outside of work you’ll find me learning something new in YouTube or in online courses, improving my italian, working on a “weekend project” or practicing a new magic trick. You might find me playing soccer too!
If you'd like to talk about creating things together, hit me up! Looking forward to talking to you soon.
