What I'm looking for
At Limo Miami, I develop B2B strategies for corporate accounts and event organizers. I built and maintain CRM infrastructure, organize sales pipeline data, and launch outbound email campaigns.
At Turpal, I spearheaded the company's entry into the Turkish market and led its first sales operations. I secured client meetings and proposals, and led initial interviews and evaluations of SDR candidates.
At Yolwise and Masraff, I managed sales from prospecting through closing, delivering product demonstrations and negotiating proposals. At Masraff, I presented AI-powered expense management solutions to prospective clients.
At Mowico, I progressed from Sales Development Representative to SDR Team Leader, coaching and training the team and improving sales processes. Earlier, I supported customers in call center and guest relations roles.
My background as a professional tour guide helped me develop exceptional communication, interpersonal, and problem-solving skills, which have been instrumental in my success across sales, business development, and customer support.
