Diego Gonzalez-Zuniga 🏳️‍🌈's Linkedin Analytics

I'm a dynamic Retail Leader and Marketing Strategist with over a decade of experience launching flagship stores, scaling teams, and growing brand presence for some of the world's most recognizable names, including SKIMS, Gymshark, Ralph Lauren, Outerknown, and more. As a bilingual Marketing and Retail Operations Leader based in New York City, I specialize in helping brands grow through strategic digital marketing, social media innovation, and exceptional retail leadership. Throughout my career, I’ve successfully opened new flagship locations, hired and developed high-performing teams of 70–200+ associates, and driven multimillion-dollar sales growth, including leading a $45M projected flagship launch on 5th Avenue. My passion lies at the intersection of operational excellence, experiential retail, and building meaningful community engagement through marketing, partnerships, and events. Beyond retail leadership, I’m also an experienced freelance marketing consultant and content creator through my platform, Diego Downtown — where I support brands across fashion, beauty, wellness, and hospitality. I've successfully grown digital audiences by over 50%, led paid media campaigns with $75K+ budgets, and launched influencer marketing programs that have driven measurable growth and brand loyalty. Having worked both domestically and internationally (including London for Gymshark’s flagship training), I bring a global mindset, entrepreneurial spirit, and a deep passion for sustainable fashion, wellness, and building future leaders. Fluent in both English and Spanish, I thrive on connecting brands to diverse audiences and scaling authentic brand engagement globally.
