What I'm looking for

I am looking for a remote leadership role where I can sit at the intersection of commercial growth and operational execution. Having spent over 20 years managing international accounts and even running my own business, I look at the sales pipeline through a 360-degree operational lens.

I've led international sales and market expansion for premium fabric lines at ITALIAN CONVERTER SRL across Italy, Spain, Greece, and Portugal, managing client accounts from samples and technical consulting through fulfillment and global shipping.

As founder and general manager of COTHAI Accesorios SRL, I built integrated retail and wholesale operations, managed global sourcing and import logistics, and increased annual profitability by 18%.
