Summary

Since entering the workforce at the age of 14, I've built a dynamic career in hospitality, PR, HR (hiring and training), sales, executive assistance, marketing, and television production. Notable accomplishments include organizing VIP events, hosting and producing three TV shows, high-ticket sales success, representing several companies at conferences, assisting in building startups and securing government funding. With a background in biology, a master's degree in entrepreneurship & business, and certifications in project management, coaching, and hypnotherapy, I bring a unique blend of skills to the table. For the past two years, I've immersed myself in the world of personal development as a self-employed life coach and retreat leader, emphasizing public speaking, hospitality, marketing, and HR skills. My journey encapsulates a relentless pursuit of excellence and a commitment to making a meaningful impact across diverse fields.
