TESTIMONIES
Andrés Cavelier is one of the leading specialists in digital content and online journalism in the Américas. I have witnessed for nearly a decade his commitment to help journalism and communications evolve in the midst of the challenges brought by the digital revolution. Fastrackmedia can now help companies in the region benefit from his experience.

One of the toughest --and most important-- things a newsroom must do is teach staffers to become online journalists. FastrackMedia can help you do that, through training. I watched Andrés Cavelier convert the El Nuevo Herald newsroom into an online-first operation, where every reporter and editor became aware of the importance of the web and how it could reach users throughout Latin America immediately.

Andrés Cavelier brought a special dimension to his year as a Nieman Fellow at Harvard University in 2008. He is a native of Colombia who had worked for newspapers in the United States and who had a vision for helping U.S. Hispanic and Latin American media companies. That vision has now blossomed into a new company, FastrackMedia, where Andres is applying his gift for strategic thinking to helping online and mobile enterprises succeed.
