@giovannaportaro

I coordinate executive operations, client relationships, and sales support across fast-paced teams.

I've supported directors, presidents, and executive teams at Plan Group, Crane Supply, and Rapid Aid Corporation, coordinating time-sensitive information, calendars, travel, expenses, events, and project activities.

I also bring client-facing sales experience from Skin Vitality Medical Clinic and Sephora, where I educated clients, maintained accurate records, recommended products and treatments, and increased sales by 10% through follow-up.
