As a sales professional with over a

decade of expertise in the fashion

industry, I understand the importance of

balancing efficiency and results-oriented

approaches with solid relationship-

building amongst colleagues and clients

alike. As such, I have honed strong

negotiation and presentation skills,

coupled with a communication style that

lends well to developing and maintaining

a client-centered approach.

At Groupe Imperial, I have used my

interpersonal and professional skills

to open new markets across Canada.

My accomplishments included selling

into more than 100 mini-majors and

independent retailers, contributing to

successes such as the company’s 10

percent sales increase in 2013. I ran

numerous in-store product knowledge

seminars and organized contests and

incentives for store and sales staff,

trained store managers and staff in order

to increase their understanding of the

unique features of our products, and

supported them in developing selling

techniques specific to new collections.

I am committed to finding creative

ways to adapt to an ever-changing

landscape of sales in the digital age, while

maintaining face-to-face, client-forward

approaches and techniques.

Beyond sales, I am passionate about

languages, and am proficient in English,

French, Spanish, Italian, and German, a

unique set of skills which enhances my

ability to connect, build relationships,

and communicate with a diverse client

base.
