» Profile
I am a committed, friendly and hardworking marketing graduate who is passionate about making a change in society. Worked individually and collaboratively with team members to tactically enhance services to existing customers, and prospective clients and their needs while focusing on optimizing costs. Dedication, proactive, enthusiastic and loyalty are some of my most apparent qualities. I therefore see myself as a meticulous researcher, analytic and a strategic thinker who is proactive with a focus on solutions.
