These roles allowed me to develop and execute collection strategies, manage daily financial operations, and implement best practices for effective financial management.
Throughout my career, I have embraced a team-based management style, efficiently handling large teams and training new executives. My effective communication and strong relationship management skills enable me to relate to people at all levels of business and management globally, while my analytical and negotiation skills ensure optimal outcomes.
