I performed market segment strategic planning by analyzing market data through Mintel, a global market research and market insight website. I specifically searched the Indonesian market to determine if blueberries would sell in the country. I analyzed and researched upon different market trends in Indonesia, while employing qualitative marketing research techniques to help clients understand their customers more fully to make well- informed business decisions.

Market the Gatorade product (bars, drink, shakes) to young athletes during sporting camps at Cornell University. Educating the youth on the benefits of the product was a large part of the job. Maintaining the distribution of the product and making sure there is enough to go around to the campers, was also part of the job. I also had to assist in managing the inventory of the product.
