With years of experience as the founding member of the multimillion-dollar company Makeblock, I am looking to take on new challenges in growing AI, robotic, or tech companies as a Business Development Manager, using my skills and years of experience in strategic partnerships.
From being a founding member at Makeblock to working as a partnership manager at California Science and Technology University, I have enjoyed my career as a business development manager, striving every day to grow businesses to new heights and now it’s time to take up a new challenge.
