Tristan B. de la Rosa
Tristan has decades of leadership experience in some of the world's largest and most respected companies. Starting out as Brand Manager at Procter & Gamble, he rose to Chief Marketing Officer and eventually Country Managing Director positions in companies that include Kraft General Foods, Johnson & Johnson, and the Wm Wrigley Jr Company.
