I have significant international experience in driving STM publishing, sales models, business development, and revenue generation. I am a skilled cross-cultural communicator with a strong reputation for my ability to exceed expectations on multifaceted projects and for solving complex problems. I excel at building results-driven teams through inspirational leadership.
