Throughout my career, I have demonstrated exceptional negotiation and analytical skills, leading to successful contract negotiations and strategic partnerships. My educational background in Chemical Engineering, coupled with certifications such as Certified Treasury Professional (CTP) and Associate Chartered Economist, has equipped me with a robust understanding of financial principles and market dynamics.
