Brianda Fuentes
Brianda Fuentes is a petroleum engineer and the author of How to Succeed in an Interview in the Oil and Gas Industry and How to Build a Business Empire With Effective Communication Skills.

Her work deals with effective business communication, both within the oil and gas industry and in business at large.

Brianda has a master’s degree in logistics from Murcia, Spain, and a master’s degree in business administration from Florida National University. She graduated with honors and was first in her class. She also had the privilege of being the salutatorian and giving the speech at her graduation ceremony. Brianda has over eight years of experience in the oil sector, and a keen eye for business.

When she was beginning her career, communication was a hurdle for Brianda. Business communication, she discovered, is a specific art, and in order to communicate effectively in a fast-paced and quick-changing environment, specific skills are needed. Conversations in business must inspire trust, convey information clearly and concisely, and engage the audience – and the skills needed to excel in an interview are far different from the skills needed to secure a deal.

Brianda is passionate about guiding readers in the subtle art of business communication so that this area is never something that keeps them from reaching their career goals.

Brianda lived in her home country of Bolivia until 2017, when she moved to the United States. She is happily married with one daughter and enjoys any opportunity to further her education.

Brianda is an experienced petroleum engineer who speaks four languages fluently and has obtained several important recognitions in the science field. She has obtained a membership in the Society of Petroleum Engineers and The National Society of Leadership and Success.

Brianda has been featured in an interview titled, "Success tastes like a woman: The fact of trying something makes you a little braver”, which was published by El Gran Chaco in Bolivia. This article explores the challenges that Ms. Fuentes Rivero overcame in light of the oil and gas industry being dominated by men and her dedication to make a better life for herself, her family and being a success story for the town of Villa Montes. She has also authored two articles for El Gran Chaco - “Hydraulic Fracturing or Fracking” and “Consequences of hydraulic fracturing for one year”
