Mariestella Colón Astacio
Mariestella leads creative and media at AMA, supporting the team and clients with brand, design, and web solutions that align to business goals. She partners closely with every consultant to translate the substance of their work into the voice, visuals, and channels that carry it to market.
She has been with the firm from the beginning, shaping AMA's identity as it grew from a small consultancy into a boutique advisory recognized across the automotive and mobility industry. Her fingerprints are on the brand system, website architecture, and the way engagements are packaged for clients.
Day to day, she runs the firm's visual and editorial voice across the website, event collateral, thought-leadership pieces, decks, and client-facing deliverables — making sure the way AMA shows up in market matches the caliber of the work behind it.
She works across strategy, positioning, and production — from research and messaging through art direction, web builds, and campaign rollout — bringing consultants' expertise to life in formats clients and partners can actually use, share, and act on.
