Welcome to the first edition of a blog series we like to call, Your Career, Elevated! Join us as we sit down with team members from various departments and roles to learn their stories, challenges, and triumphs that shape their professional journeys. Each interview offers a unique perspective on the inner workings of our dynamic team and delves into the passions, inspirations, and lessons learned by those who contribute to our collective success. This week you'll get to know Cata, Heighten Security's Customer Development Manager!
In a few brief sentences, please introduce yourself. My name is Catalina Orrego. I’ve had the opportunity to develop my career as a project manager and I find it fascinating being able to help people and companies identify their goals and reach their objectives. Having the opportunity to bring people together and work towards a common goal is what I love most about my job.
On a personal note, I am married with no children or pets. I enjoy my free time sharing experiences with my significant other, such as going to the movies, walking by the lakeshore, and dining at a good restaurant.
What’s your role at Heighten Security?
I work as a Customer Development Manager for the Heighten CORE.
In your opinion, what sets Heighten apart from competition? What do you like most about working here?
Working at Heighten has given me the opportunity to reach my full potential professionally. At Heighten I find myself collaborating with exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable people who always show interest in mutual learning. I love the fact that diverse ideas are not only embraced but actively encouraged as we firmly believe that success is a collective achievement rather than an individual pursuit. Here, the success of one becomes the shared success of all which reflects the collaborative environment that we have.
What’s one piece of advice for someone looking to get into the cybersecurity industry? Being that Cybersecurity is such a dynamic field, I would encourage a continuous learning mindset. Take relevant courses and work towards certifications that go with the type of role you want to fill. Start your networking within the cybersecurity community and attend conferences to know other people in the field and start making valuable connections.
Who is your most influential role model right now? Since the early stages of my career, I’ve had a role model who’s inspired me to always give my best at what I do and always believe that I can do whatever I set my mind to. I had the opportunity (and privilege) to cross paths with Juan Velez (CEO LATAM at Beyond ONE) a few years ago and I have admired him ever since. His trust in his team and his leadership philosophy influenced my professional development and that’s something I’ll keep with me wherever I go.
If you could have one superpower, what would it be? Blink and anything happens! There would be no limits to what I could achieve, and I could make everyone happy by granting them all their wishes.
