Director Product Management - The Stanley Works
Miami/Fort Lauderdale Area
I'm a marketing and product professional with over 20 years of experience helping world class brands succeed in international markets by developing products from concept to launch, protecting brand equity and satisfying local market requirements.
Having worked and/or lived in three different continents I understand how business is conducted across different cultures. I am fluent in English, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian, with a basic understanding of French.
I'm also fascinated by the Internet and social media, and their potential as a cost-effective platform to spread ideas and build powerful personal and small business brands.
