Summary

I am a dynamic sales management professional, as well as an experienced makeup artist. My strengths lie in opening and developing new territories within the market, with a knack for increasing sales revenue. With years of management experience, I have greatly refined my problem-solving skills, as well as my communication and team building skills. With these experiences, I believe the key to a business' success is the integration of empathy to further align oneself with a company's core values. I have worked under multiple luxury beauty and fashion brands such as Christian Dior, Shiseido, Lancôme, Clarins, Borghese, and Porsche Design U.S., to name a few. I have published, promoted, merchandised and implemented company projects, along with having managed operations as well. I have multiple years of experience in managing social media and websites, publishing both articles and creating content. I have also conducted interviews with celebrities, covered events in writing, and collaborated with influencers for the purpose of expanding business.
