Underlining Skills and Other Achievements

Excellent communication and interpersonal skills. I have developed these abilities due to my high-quality education pursued in Italy, Spain and Scotland. My B2B worldwide sales experience have dramatically improved my skills as I am required to persuade senior company executives in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

Work under minimal supervision. My previous roles require me to work on my own under no supervision since these jobs are sales target orientated. Additionally, the outcome of my academic individual projects has already emphasized this ability.

Business acumen and extraordinary ability to read people.

Financial Freedom.
