Sales and marketing specialist with 20+ years in tourism, foreign trade, and events.
What I'm looking for
I am a multilingual, dynamic professional with over 20 years of experience specializing in sales and marketing across organization, foreign trade, and tourism. I bring strong international customer relations, project management, and an operational, results-oriented mindset.
In full-time roles, I led growth and revenue through strategy, pricing, and client portfolio expansion, and ensured compliance with customs regulations while coordinating logistics and purchasing for export/import operations. I also managed luxury travel segments and represented the business at international tourism fairs to develop new partnerships and tourism packages.
Alongside my permanent positions, I deliver high-impact, project-based event organization—creating concert concepts, managing multilingual translation, coordinating artists and technical teams, and overseeing ticketing, guest relations, and promotional digital strategies. I consistently contribute through teamwork, creativity in problem-solving, and ownership of end-to-end execution.
