I bring a combined background in business development, operations, and project coordination across travel, manufacturing, construction-adjacent, and events environments. My roles have consistently involved not only commercial engagement and partner development, but also responsibility for ensuring projects and initiatives were operationally feasible and effectively delivered. Throughout my career, I’ve worked closely with cross-functional teams, suppliers, and stakeholders to coordinate logistics, timelines, and delivery requirements — translating commercial objectives into practical execution across diverse markets and settings. In recent years, I’ve focused more deliberately on the operational and coordination side of my skill set, including logistics planning, workflow structure, stakeholder alignment, and delivery oversight — areas that have always formed a core part of my roles alongside sales and account management.
