About us

WOJCIECH PTAK

Hello, my name is Wojciech, and I am a dedicated dairy farm manager and veterinarian with over thirteen years’ experience in the field. I hold an MSc in Animal Reproduction and Cattle Internal Medicine. My work focuses on animal welfare, disease prevention, and economic modelling of herd health. I currently work as a Regional Technical and Marketing Manager for HIPRA, where I combine my passion and experience in cattle management. In my free time, I enjoy travelling and photography.

TANIA PERÁLVAREZ

Hello everyone! My name is Tania Perálvarez Puerta and I graduated in Veterinary Medicine from the Autonomous University of Barcelona. I always knew that I wanted to dedicate my professional life to animals and whilst I was a student, I started to become interested in animal production, in particular ruminants.  

After some years working in the field as a practitioner, I decided to study for an MSc in Zoonosis and One Health, which allowed me to study the interaction between animal, human, and environment health more closely. I am very committed to the concept of One Health, and preventive medicine is a key point. Working as a Global Product Manager at HIPRA I can raise awareness about the subject, contributing to disease prevention which is crucial for the protection of global health.

Travelling and learning about new cultures is my passion. I love nature, so I go to the mountains with my dogs whenever I can. I also enjoy going to concerts and to the cinema.  

LAURA MARTÍNEZ

Hello! I’m Laura Martinez and I work at HIPRA as Global Marketing communications specialist. I studied for a degree in Advertising & Public Relations at the University of Girona (Spain) and I consider myself to be passionate about everything related to communications, events and advertising. With over 10 years’ experience, I joined HIPRA in 2015 with no idea about cows, but now, after many years surrounded by veterinarians, I’m a believer in prevention as the path to animal welfare and the improvement of global health.  

Apart from that, in my free time I enjoy walking with my dog, a beagle called Sherlock, read everything that arrives in my hands, especially if they are thrillers or comics, cook any new recipe as a challenge and for sure, travel to get to know new cultures and places! 

RUI CEPEDA

Hello, my name is Rui Cepeda, I am DVM and graduated from Lisbon University. I am currently based close to Porto, in Portugal. I enjoy spending my free time with my family and I am also passionate about food.

Professionally, I have always worked in the area of prevention, both on milk quality and in biosecurityI have a great interest in how to persuade farmers to improve their procedures and monitor the results. Having more data-supported decisions on dairy farms is one of the ways to continue improving sustainability and the efficiency of milk production.  

At HIPRA, my job as global product manager, observing such diverse countries in Europe and the Americas, allows me to be in contact with different cultures, different production systems and to continuously grow my knowledge and ability to have a positive impact in our sector. 

MARGA PENELAS

My name is Marga Penelas, and I currently work as a Global Product Manager at HIPRA.

From a very young age, I have always known that I wanted to go into large animal medicine. I started working as a rural veterinarian in the north of Spain, caring for cows, horses, sheep, goats, dogs…Without a doubt that was the most fun stage of this entire trip, and the one that helped me specialize as a milk quality veterinarian later and dedicate myself passionately to the prevention of diseases in dairy cattle for many years. Now, I work hard to raise awareness among colleagues and farmers that prevention is the way to increase global health.

In addition to all this, my whole life I have been involved with sports and in my free time there is never a lack of padel rackets, tennis rackets or skis, in addition to my dogs.

MARTIJN SEELIE

Hi, I am Martijn Seelie, originally from the Netherlands, but I graduated from vet school in 1998 in Ghent, Belgium with ruminants as the main area of interest

During work in the field, cattle have always been the first species of interest (both dairy, cow calf operations and fattening). Over the years, the focus of my work has shifted from treatment to management and prevention.  

When I started working at HIPRA Benelux in 2014, the team focused on mastitis prevention. In 2018 my wife, my children and me have moved to Spain and since that moment my work has shifted towards providing preventive solutions in more disease areas for the dairy sector.
