Marketing at Riverbed | Growth leader | Global demand strategist

Cristina Daroca

Marketing at Riverbed | Demandbase Top 20 Marketer for 2023 | Global Demand Leader

I'm a growth leader with a passion for building and developing winning go-to-market teams. I'm a marketer at heart, and I have extensive experience leading marketing for SaaS start-ups and medium-sized companies. I love helping develop other marketers to reach their full potential. 

I care deeply about the people I work with. My favorite part of the job is helping my team grow and navigate the chaos that often comes with high-growth tech.

Outside of work, you’ll find me enjoying time with my husband and 3 kids, skiing, visiting family in Spain (where I'm originally from!), or reading a good novel. 

Areas of expertise: GTM, demand generation, ABM, digital strategy, customer marketing, community building, marketing operations, marketing analytics.
