Throughout my career, I have contributed to impacting business outcomes through effective organization, prioritization, and execution of key projects. 

Previously, in my Buyer role, I exercised a calculated and methodical approach to problem solving. I am independently motivated, yet I appreciate team efforts and collaborate productively within groups. Additionally, I am knowledgeable in research and trend analysis and business development with proficiency in managing timeline and sales objectives.


As you review my resume, you may notice a gap in my work experience. I  relocated across country to accommodate an opportunity for my spouse. While managing the logistics of my move, I studied industry news, trends and events to keep my knowledge current. Also, it took a while for me to secure work permit to work in US. I have H4 EAD which allows me to work for any employer in US. I am now settled and prepared to take the next steps in my career.

 

To demonstrate the scope of my career history and professional competencies, please take a moment to review my attached resume. I appreciate your evaluation of my credentials and subsequent response.

 

Sincerely,
Roseleen D’Souza
