Me Rindo

Poems in Spanish
Written By Santiago Valdés

Me rindo.

Como árbol que suelta su trabajo,

ante el inminente invierno.

Como vida bien vivida,

cuando llega su momento.

Me rindo.

Niño que suelta el ceño fruncido,

y abre los brazos.

Velero que, a falta de aire productivo,

destensa la vela; suelta timón y destino.

Me rindo.

Presa paralizada

ante el veneno de su captor.

Palmera quebrada,

humillada por el huracán.

Lagrima que se vence,

y se desliza hacia el mentón.

Argumento perdido.

Me rindo.

Como corazón en su último latido.

Porque lograste sacarme de mí, ritmo mío,

y que “nosotros” tuviera sentido.

Santiago Valdés

My purpose is to deliver transcendent experiences, by developing deep understanding of others’ unique sound, and providing the rhythm, structure, and energy needed to harmonize and play with it.

---------------------------------------------

I love working with cross-functional teams to drive impact. As the fourth in an eight-sibling family, and a lifelong professional drummer, I quickly learned diversity and inclusion drove synergy, creativity & innovation, and just so much more fun to any activity.

Unsurprisingly, I sought to become cross-functional myself. As a Product Manager in Cloud Computing, I’m shaping the present and future of computing by leveraging my experience in Design Innovation, GTM Strategy, Modeling, Financial/Data Analyses, Operations, Communication and Cross-functional team management; experiences I got in companies big and small, local and global.

Just as I've helped deliver music to a diversity of audiences, I will collaborate to deliver great product experiences to many more.
