What I'm looking for

I seek a senior international sales or business development role leading market expansion, strategic partnerships, and high-value deals in a growth-oriented, multicultural company; open to relocation to Costa Rica.

I am a results-driven international sales and business development executive with nearly a decade of experience delivering measurable growth across Europe, LATAM, and Africa. I am fluent in French and English and actively advancing Spanish in preparation for relocation to Costa Rica.

I have been promoted rapidly into senior regional leadership after record sales performance, opened new international markets, and led high-impact negotiations that secured multi-year, multimillion-euro system deployments and account expansions. I drive go-to-market strategy, SaaS and hardware rollouts, and strategic shifts such as web migration for core platforms to boost agility and innovation.

I combine startup founding experience—raising investor capital and scaling product and user communities—with enterprise-level account management, contract negotiation, and cross-functional team leadership. I build trusted C-level relationships and lead teams to exceed targets in high-pressure, multicultural environments.
