Sales and marketing professional skilled in customer engagement, digital marketing, and healthcare support.
What I'm looking for
I am a motivated sales and marketing professional with over four years of experience in customer engagement, telesales, and digital marketing. I build strong client relationships and consistently drive revenue growth through attentive service and targeted outreach.
I've worked across retail, clinics, hospitality, and corporate customer care, handling inbound and outbound sales, client onboarding, and showroom responsibilities. I founded and managed an online boutique, leveraging social media to grow sales and provide outstanding customer service.
Recently I expanded into healthcare support, completing a Certified Nurse Assistant course with Basic Life Support and First Aid certifications, and gained hands-on experience as a nursing assistant intern. I combine interpersonal strengths with practical healthcare skills to support patient comfort and documentation.
I seek roles where I can apply sales expertise, digital marketing skills, and growing healthcare capabilities to drive measurable results while continuing professional development in customer-centered environments.
