Summary

Sales Management experience- 5years


I am hardworking, people-orientated and dedicated. My career goals are to keep bettering myself and therefore I am my own biggest competition.


I started out as a "picker" in my family's logistics company; I worked my way up through the ranks until I was tasked with customer- deliveries. I then realised that this is the industry I want to be in. Soon after, I started my own portfolio of wines.


I am passionate about working in a family-environment as that is what I pay tribute to when reflecting on my humble beginnings in the Wine Industry.
