TODAY’S GUEST
Lina Mateus is born and raised in Colombia. She graduated with a BA from the Universidad de Los Andes in Bogota and started looking for her first job right after the 2008 crisis, moved to the Big Apple, and started her career in Digital Marketing. Fast forward a few years, she and her husband moved to H-Town! For many years, she worked for a big corporation, the usual 9-5. One hot summer day on the way home from Austin, she realized it was time to follow her lifelong dream of being an entrepreneur. She was eight months pregnant then (waiting for her firstborn Ben), and SimplyMom to Be was born.
While waiting for baby #2, Olivia, a new idea was born, DigiClicks. It started as a sort of “side gig” and has since grown to be a rising star in the Houston marketing scene, providing the latest in web design, digital marketing, and social media management (and all the other things that online businesses need).
