Summary

I successfully opened Carmind’s sub-branch in Dubai, overseeing HR operations and recruiting skilled bilingual employees. Through effective market research, I expanded our client base to over 50 customers and facilitated the sale of 500 vehicles in markets like Jordan, Poland, and Colombia. Additionally, I launched a Shopify website and produced 50 short video episodes, increasing our digital presence and brand engagement. My diverse skills in market research, digital strategy, and business operations drive continued growth for Carmind’s international expansion.
