Seasoned sales leader with international experience leading teams to exceptional success. My journey, which began with a degree in Mechanical Engineering from RWTH Aachen University and an enriching stint at Clemson University, USA, has been characterized by influential roles in the technical textiles and aerospace sectors.I played a central role in achieving a sustainable annual growth rate of 10% and thus contributed significantly to the company's success.
