Honolulu, HI
In My Own Words
Aloha! I had the distinct pleasure of working as a sales rep for Volcom Womens for a year (+ then represented SEAC Italian Dive company). It was a great learning experience and further expanded my sales background - specifically in the acition sports / apparel / fashion industry. Additionally I have worked as a sale rep in the beverage industry and have an strong background in marketing (and events.) I absolutely love working in marketing and sales, servicing accounts and building relationships with new & old accounts and business owners. The job profile was an excellent fit and hope to continue working in this capacity or other related areas. Ideally growing a brand, driving sales and elevating the brand profile, in the Hawaii market (or Califonia ).
Open and dedicated to new opportunities that will expand my growth and knowledge.
