Summary

From establishing Europe's most dominant online gaming team in the Delta Force series two decades ago to consistently exceeding sales targets throughout my career, one thing remains constant: my commitment to work with passion and determination to achieve success. My journey in sales commenced 18 years ago at Vodafone, where I discovered my talent for helping clients while driving business growth. I've always prioritised providing my clients with the same level of care and enthusiasm that I reserve for those closest to me. Recently, I embarked on a new adventure by relocating to Spain, embracing fresh challenges and opportunities while remaining faithful to my entrepreneurial energy.
