## About

```text
I manage the full quote-to-invoice cycle for international shipping clients at Daron Group / D2S Chip Services, from purchase orders and supplier proposals through to client and supplier invoicing.

I verify control-unit specifications, currency selection, tariffs, and client requirements before quotes are approved, resolving order discrepancies with the Commercial Manager before invoicing.

With over 10 years across shipping, retail sales, hospitality, and administration, I bring accurate ERP and CRM reporting, cross-border stakeholder communication, and fluent English, French, and Swahili.
