• Business acumen in networking and creating strategic alliances for Uni International where I negotiated agreements with Field Associates, Net.Net and FBGTV.
• Fluency in French, Spanish, and English, with the ability to converse in Italian and Japanese.
• Comprehensive knowledge of cultural and social conditions in France, Brazil, and Venezuela.
• A rich musical history that includes performing in New York with the Young Musicians of Los Angeles, and composing culturally-unique rhythms and music in numerous categories, including R&B, hip hop and Latin.
