What I'm looking for
With a strong background in sales and hospitality, I am an experienced professional dedicated to delivering exceptional customer service and cultivating long-term client relationships. My journey began at Seneca College, where I honed my skills in tourism and travel, achieving a GPA of 3.9/4.0. Over the years, I have developed a diverse skill set that includes sales strategies, team leadership, and effective communication, all of which have contributed to my success in various roles.
As a Multi-store Manager at Grupo O Valor do Tempo, I directed staff recruitment and training, implemented productivity standards, and led the establishment of our first international store in New York City. My previous roles, including Hospitality Hostess and Sales Associate, have further solidified my expertise in customer service and sales, allowing me to consistently exceed targets and enhance the customer experience. I am proficient in multiple languages, which enables me to connect with clients from diverse backgrounds, and I am passionate about creating memorable experiences for every customer.
