My name is Magdalena Bugallo, but everyone calls me MACU, a nickname I've had since childhood.

I am a woman, a daughter, a friend, a wife, a mother, a creative thinker, a change agent, a coach, a Human Resources professional, a Total Rewards expert, an amateur writer, an avid reader, a traveler, a curious and passionate person, an eternal learner, and so much more. I am a kaleidoscope of interests, and I came into this world with ONE MISSION: to create sustainable and positive change, one person at a time.

Born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina, I moved to the USA in September 2021, and I have been residing in Spring Hill, Tennessee. I am married to Facundo, and we are pet parents to Simona and Eros, our beautiful Shar Peis.

Throughout the past 20 years, I have cultivated my career in Human Resources, specializing in Total Rewards. My expertise lies in planning, developing, and implementing strategies, programs, and solutions in Compensation and Benefits aligned with business needs. Additionally, I excel in crafting holistic Total Rewards communication strategies to drive awareness and engagement in company programs, thereby aiding in the attraction and retention of top talent.

I also serve as a life and professional coach, offering support for personal and organizational changes. I specialize in tailoring resources and creating personalized training programs that focus on developing the skills and behaviors necessary to pave the path to success and achieve your goals.

I hold a bachelor’s degree with a major in Human Resources and a master’s degree in Coaching and Change Management. Over the years, I have continually pursued training and acquired skills across diverse topics including coaching, leadership, communication, gamification, human business partnering, and change management. I am always seeking opportunities for growth, aiming to develop new knowledge and then apply it in service to others.
