What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role that fosters growth, collaboration, and innovation.

I am a specialized BAHonors graduate in Financial and Business Economics, equipped with strong analytical and communication skills. My experience spans across sales operations and business development internships, where I have honed my abilities in lead generation, market dynamics, and growth strategies. I am highly motivated to drive impactful solutions in data-driven, competitive environments.

During my internship at Job Hunting U Toronto, I utilized AI tools such as Mail Chimp and Flowchat to extract data and generate leads. I produced comprehensive reports and conducted cold outreach via LinkedIn, which enhanced my understanding of client relations and sales activities. Additionally, my role as a Business Development Intern at GAO TEK involved managing leads through CRM software and executing daily outreach to potential clients, further solidifying my skills in B2B marketing.

Currently, I serve as the Director of Marketing for the Association for Business and Data Analytics Club, where I successfully increased event attendance by 20% through effective marketing strategies. My volunteer experience as a teacher has also allowed me to develop strong organizational and planning skills, which I apply in all my professional endeavors.
