About me
Intro
I am an internationally experienced business professional with a strong background in business development, marketing, and sales across multiple industries and continents including Asia, Europe, and North America. I recently completed my Master's degree in International Business at the University of Birmingham, graduating with a Distinction for my dissertation on how first-generation immigrants perceive user- and firm-generated content – research that caught the attention of academic reviewers for future publication. Having relocated to Belgium in 2023, I have been actively integrating into the Flemish community, including learning Dutch, while building on my diverse international experience. I am now eager to bring my skills in CRM, digital marketing, sales development, and client relationship management to a new challenge in Belgium or remotely. Open to opportunities in marketing, business development (sales), or investment analysis.
