Summary

I am a results-driven Area Sales Manager with a strong background in mechanical engineering and pharmaceutical automation. At Comecer, I have led B2B sales and business development across APAC & Oceania, increasing revenue from €1.5M to over €7M. My expertise includes key account management, distributor partnerships, and customized solution selling for pharmaceutical and radiopharmaceutical production equipment.

I hold an MSc in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Bologna, specializing in Advanced Mechanics, and conducted research at TU/e Eindhoven on metal fuel combustion. Previously, at Keyence, I managed direct sales and oversaw IMA Group as a Key Account.

Fluent in English and Italian, I excel in contract negotiation, CRM management, and international business development, thriving in fast-paced, high-stakes environments that demand both technical expertise and commercial acumen.
