About me
I'm graduated in Advertising & Propaganda by UniCEUB in Brazil, I initially oriented my studies n' professional interests towards the visual arts area. In 2011, as a freelancer, I developed the opening video for the BlackBull Security Day, an event that had the partnership of major manufacturers in the IT industry. After this project, I was invited to be the Graphic Editor by the same company that promoted the event. Later, still at BlackBull, I held the positions of Marketing Manager and Sales Operations. In the position of Sales Operations, I strengthened the relationship with IT manufacturers and distributors. I actively participated in forecast meetings, with presentation and analysis of information extracted from the CRM, contributing to the decision-making process and strategic sales sector. I was also responsible for pricing all commercial proposals, negotiating discounts for purchases, and defining the pricing strategy for public bids. Currently, I occupy the position of COO.
