What I'm looking for
I’m a customer-centric marketing and account management professional with 7+ years of experience driving revenue growth, brand loyalty, and operational excellence across retail and B2B environments.

I also lead integrated campaigns and performance tracking to refine targeting and strengthen ROI, including improvements of 30% through data-driven adjustments.
I bring hands-on leadership in team training, stakeholder coordination, and process improvement—from visual merchandising and inventory management to client retention strategies. I’m now seeking a Marketing Manager or Account Management role where I can leverage cross-functional expertise to deliver tangible business outcomes.
