What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead international commercial growth through market development, strategic partnerships, key account management, and go-to-market execution across multicultural markets.

I've led commercial development for international toy brands at Simba Dickie HK across LATAM and Iberia, managing key accounts, distributors, and retail channels. I align pricing, portfolio selection, assortment, and go-to-market plans to local market dynamics and customer needs.

I delivered 60% sales growth in Argentina within six months through portfolio renewal and stronger customer activation, while opening markets including Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Panama, and Mexico.

Previously at Park Lane Solutions, I expanded international business across LATAM, the Middle East, Eastern Europe, Iberia, South Africa, and Scandinavia. I secured long-term retailer partnerships and closed an agreement with Poland's largest retailer that contributed to 45% regional sales growth.
