About

I build businesses, revenue engines, and high-performance teams. Over the years, I’ve worked across **Hospitality, F&B, Revenue Management, SaaS, NFC Technology, Corporate Gifting and B2B/B2C Sales**, with a consistent focus: turning ideas and opportunities into measurable business growth. Currently, I lead business growth and P&L-driven initiatives across hospitality and F&B, while also building products and businesses in the NFC and digital identity space. My core strengths include: • Business Development & Revenue Growth • B2B & B2C Sales Strategy • P&L & Commercial Management • Team Building & Sales Leadership • Product Development & Go-to-Market • Strategic Partnerships • Process Automation & CRM • Hospitality & F&B Operations • Market Expansion & New Business Development I’m comfortable working from **strategy to execution** — building teams, creating sales systems, developing products, improving processes, closing large accounts and taking ownership of numbers. I’m particularly interested in opportunities where I can **build, scale and lead**, rather than simply manage an existing system. If you’re building something ambitious and looking for someone who thinks like an **operator, salesperson and business owner**, let’s connect.
