Summary

I am an undergraduate at the University of London (SIM-UOL) pursuing a degree in Business and Management. With over 4 years of experience in the ophthalmic industry as an optometrist, I have honed my skills in retail sales, customer consultation, and personalized care. In addition, I work part-time as a live model, where I have developed expertise in product presentation and driving revenue through social media and live-streaming platforms. I am now looking to apply my sales acumen and client engagement skills to a tech sales role, where I can contribute to business growth in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
