Summary

With a bachelor in tourism, I started this course with the goal of entering aviation, which is the area I have more affinity, along with work with hospitality and events besides some voluntary services focused on tourism, such as the anniversary of the city of Belém and Expornorte in Brazil. I excel in customer service, in providing an excellent experience and feedback. Throughout my time in Azul Airlines I always achieved the goals in sales, add-ons for customers, ensuring flights are always on time (departures and arrivals).
