I'm excited to share a brand new episode of The wisenetix Podcast – our communication channel where business and marketing leaders from the ag industry share their thoughts and experiences about our field and the world. 

In today's episode, I have the pleasure of talking with Dr. Maria Spindola, Commercial Director at Iluma Alliance and Alura Animal Health & Nutrition. Dr. Spindola is a Brazilian veterinarian who currently plays a strategic role at a company that is present in multiple countries. She shares with us the journey she took to become a successful professional in the animal industry; the most significant challenges – and opportunities – she sees in our field; the reason why timing is so critical to staying competitive in the business; and the way Muay Thai gradings work (why not?).
