Summary

My career began at Boyner Holding, where I honed my ability to understand customer needs, and drive sales. As a Sales Specialist at Nivogo, I not only implemented policies to enhance operations but also played a key role in negotiating contracts, setting up sales agreements, and ensuring customer satisfaction through consistent follow-up.

At Star Exchange International, I currently serve as the Business Development Manager, where I lead efforts in researching and pursuing new business opportunities. My work involves developing relationships with potential clients, improving sales.

My entrepreneurial experience as the Co-Founder of Blues Packaging further strengthened my sales skills, as I was responsible for revitalizing business plans to increase profits. This role demanded a deep understanding of market dynamics, as well as the ability to directly connect with customers to meet their needs.
