1.- Personal Information:

Place of birth: Lima, Peru.

USA Legal Resident, since 2008

Civil Status: Married

Languages: Very good communication skills in Spanish and English.

2. - Position Desired: Sales Manager

Solid experience in Operations management, Sales management, sales and sales

development, in the area of computers, printers, printer parts, supplies, general

electronics and electronic equipment.

Excellent communication and presentation skills. I really connect with clients, give full

attention about their needs. I listen to them and earn their trust, based on a human touch

with honesty, hard work, knowledge of my products and an assurance that we will be

here to help them and support them in relation to our products.

Being in the real world, visiting clients, those that know little about what they want, and

those that think they know too much, I have learned how to deal with them, aimed not at

fighting with them, rather at gaining their business.

I can manage the Sales Department, build a knowledgeable and motivated sales team,

because I have an education and a solid experience for team building, including:

Definition of goals, project targets, identification of resources, cost analysis, estimation

of profits, and the most important thing, help the sales force to open their minds and let

the energy inside flow with a challenging and winning attitude.

Because of my education, and especially, because I enjoy doing it, I am very comfortable

giving presentations to small and large groups.

When one is a learner, nothing beats experience. Over the years I went thru different

situations, from celebrating achievements to solving problems. I have plenty of

anecdotes, which I often use, because a story is worth one thousand pictures, and a

picture is worth one thousand words.

Good experience in letter of credit processing: When the order is large enough,

sometimes, the client prefer to issue a letter of credit. This instrument is good, however it

is necessary to have good knowledge and experience, in order to process it well and get

paid immediately.

Family and work: During my career I have always studied professional and family

matters. I am convinced that for every person that works, there is a why, and it is

normally the family. Therefore an education in the family should matter to everyone,

because it has great influence in the production and effectiveness at work.
