About

With over a decade of experience in international sales and business development, I have built a career driving growth and market penetration across the GCC, South Asia, and APAC regions within the chemical and industrial solutions domain. Currently leading a regional portfolio and team, I’m responsible for business expansion, key account strategy, and P&L performance, managing products such as amines, acrylates, monomers, chlorinated solvents, glycols, and hydrocarbons. My focus lies in strengthening channel networks and partnerships across the paints, coatings, resins, oil & gas, adhesives, and laminates industries. Over the years, I’ve developed deep expertise in go-to-market planning, strategic account management, contract negotiation, and cross-border trade development. I work closely with technical, finance, and logistics teams to align commercial decisions with organizational goals and deliver sustainable profitability. Passionate about mentoring teams, forecasting growth trends, and driving customer success, I remain focused on creating long-term value through strategic market development and execution excellence.
