But over the years, her journey has been unexpectedly fulfilling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Balancing her role managing a tech support team with her passion for aerial arts (she literally flies through the air), Camila finds joy and challenge in both. As an aerialist, it challenges her strength, flexibility, and creativity through graceful movements while keeping her brain engaged.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not exactly your average tech support manager, right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But that\u2019s what makes Camila\u2019s story so captivating. With a love for learning, a passion for helping others grow, and a creative spark that never quits, she\u2019s been shaping her career at DreamHost for nearly a decade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>From Sales Desk to Support Squad<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Camila joined DreamHost with no long-term plan, just curiosity and an open mind. Initially in sales, Camila\u2019s technical curiosity led her to tech support within months. Her prior support experience with Google facilitated this transition and set the stage for years of growth.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI really didn\u2019t have any idea what I wanted when I started,\u201d Camila recalls. \u201cBut I\u2019m kind of a nerd. I need to be learning all the time to stay engaged. Which is why I love DreamHost. They allow me to learn more about the technical stuff and hosting.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, as <strong>Technical Support Manager I<\/strong>, Camila leads a team of seven, bridging communication between departments and customers. She handles escalations, team development, and makes sure crucial technical updates from teams like DevOps or TechOps reach her team.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI see my role as a point of contact, between people, teams, and between customers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dreamhost.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13089\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina--300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina--768x525.jpg 768w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina--96x66.jpg 96w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina--192x131.jpg 192w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina--682x466.jpg 682w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina--512x350.jpg 512w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina--540x369.jpg 540w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina--877x600.jpg 877w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina--784x536.jpg 784w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina--460x314.jpg 460w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina--920x629.jpg 920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The DreamHost Vibe: No Wrong Answers<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>DreamHost\u2019s flexible work environment (which her pets deeply appreciate) and people-centric culture have kept Camila engaged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThere are no wrong answers here. I can speak up, share my ideas, and I\u2019ve had amazing managers who truly listen. And the fact I\u2019ve made new friends and connections with people I really admire.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She appreciates that DreamHost encourages growth and welcomes new ideas, values that have helped her develop professionally and feel confident exploring new paths.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Creative Sparks and Career Growth<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Camila is the type of person who constantly seeks new knowledge, recently exploring <strong>UX\/UI design<\/strong> to enhance training and development within her tech support team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d love to do something that helps people get better at their work while also letting me be creative,\u201d she explains, envisioning more visual learning tools.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When asked where she sees herself in five years, Camila isn\u2019t locked into a specific role or job title. Instead, she talks about continuing to evolve within tech support, potentially creating new paths that blend creativity, communication, and mentorship.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dreamhost.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-and-her-dogs.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13090\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-and-her-dogs.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-and-her-dogs-300x205.jpg 300w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-and-her-dogs-768x525.jpg 768w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-and-her-dogs-96x66.jpg 96w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-and-her-dogs-192x131.jpg 192w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-and-her-dogs-682x466.jpg 682w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-and-her-dogs-512x350.jpg 512w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-and-her-dogs-540x369.jpg 540w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-and-her-dogs-877x600.jpg 877w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-and-her-dogs-784x536.jpg 784w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-and-her-dogs-460x314.jpg 460w, https:\/\/news.dream.press\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Ospina-and-her-dogs-920x629.jpg 920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A Full House (of Animals and Love)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Outside of work, Camila\u2019s home is never quiet, and she wouldn\u2019t have it any other way. At home in Colombia, Camila lives with her boyfriend Christian, three dogs, and her ten-year-old cat, Sakura. Rescued as a kitten, Sakura is considered the queen of their household.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her elder dog is 16 and needs a lot of care, but Camila beams when talking about her. The two younger dogs were rescues she adopted during a tough time when she thought her elder dog was going to pass, and they quickly became part of the pack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Camila and Christian also share the same passion for DIY home renovations. They\u2019re currently remodeling part of their home into her ideal office space.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cHe loves to build and I love to design. We\u2019re a great team. It\u2019s been a really fun and cost-saving way to make the space feel like ours.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond wrangling support tickets or pet hair, Camila enjoys aerial acrobatics and soaking up podcasts like <strong>The Financial Feminist<\/strong>, which empowers women to understand and take control of their finances.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith everything going on in the world, I think it\u2019s so important to learn about money.
