About

Sales professional with experience in both B2C and B2B sales. I am a driven and ambitious individual with a passion for creating value and developing strong customer relationships. I am motivated by personal success and believe that my relationship building skills are a key factor for achieving collaborative success. My experience and accomplishments (both client and supplier side) throughout EMEA, Asia and ANZ give me a unique perspective and a considered macro outlook. I have direct experience in process improvement techniques and I strongly believe that people are just as important as process.
