International trade founder at ATA’S International Trading Company, reaching USD 1.5 million in export volume in 2024.
What I'm looking for
At ATA’S International Trading Company, I manage end-to-end import and export operations, from product sourcing and supplier coordination to international sales and trade compliance. In 2024, export volume reached USD 1.5 million across textiles, bridalwear, suits, fabrics, construction materials, and renewable energy materials.
I conduct international sales and business development across European markets and other export destinations. I’ve handled in-person business meetings, product pricing, commercial contract negotiations, logistics planning, and delivery schedules.
At Comienzo Africa, I supported and coordinated the export team’s relationships with existing and potential clients, validated vendor requirements, and researched international trading opportunities. Earlier, as a Sales Intern at Mosco Trading Ltd., I supported import and export projects and reviewed documentation for accuracy and compliance.
I studied Global Studies and International Business at Universitat Pompeu Fabra (UPF), after studying Economics, Marketing and Finance at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice. I’m currently seeking new professional opportunities to broaden my experience and prove myself in different fields.
