ABOUT

A commercial career built close to the market.

My career has moved through digital marketplace sales, pharmaceuticals, telecom, beverages, lubricants and FMCG. Across those environments, the common thread has been the same: understand the territory, build the distribution engine, develop the team and execute consistently in market.

After moving to Canada, I added a different kind of operating experience: working directly in a senior-living environment where reliability, hygiene, resident service, safety and teamwork matter every day.
