Resumé
I have successfully worked with marketing, event planning, and project management in the advertising, real estate, customer communication and fashion industries. I thrive in a process and structure oriented environment where my professional and social skills are challenged. I am a competitive person and pride myself on being positive and kind. I live an active & healthy lifestyle, and am a huge sports enthusiast.
Exceptional skills:
• Marketing – With international and Danish experience, I have worked for both a world-renowned advertising agency and a small manufacturer of water treatment plants. I have extensive experience with marketing of all sizes, on and offline.
• Administrative – In-depth experience in collecting and preparing documents/permits related to real estate.
• Communications & Project Management – One year of international experience from London, being responsible for all internal communications between three creative departments divided in London and Sao Paulo.
• Management – Three years experience in a leadership role, with anywhere from 1 to 20 employees. Personally, this challenged and developed me the most in a relatively short time.
