ItalyWhat I'm looking for
I am an experienced sales professional with a long track record in retail, point-of-sale management, and customer consulting across lifestyle and specialty stores. I bring hands-on expertise in sales, store operations, and client relationship building.
I have held roles from sales assistant to store manager and sales manager, working with brands in fashion, home systems, and specialty products such as pods and capsules. My background includes responsibilities in point-of-sale management, switchboard operations, and human resources consultancy.
Beyond retail, I contribute creatively as a screenwriter for TV and cinema, and I published a book in 2024 with another due in 2025. I also volunteer as a dog behavior instructor and therapist, demonstrating a commitment to community work and diverse interests.
I work well with digital tools, am fluent in English and French, and use social media effectively to engage customers; I seek roles where I can combine sales leadership, customer experience, and creative communication.
