Bio
Maddie P.
If you know David, you know what a profound privilege it is to work alongside him. I was fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with David at Mammut where I learned an immense amount about sales tactics and strategies. His drive, contribution, and overall view of the consumer/customer relationship to the brand made David a huge asset to not only the regional team but also the global group at Mammut. While David has a wealth of knowledge and skills that would make him an asset to any organization, what I appreciate most is his leadership skills. David exudes empathy while driving his team to reach targets, be accountable for their work, and have passion for each and every task they take on. His leadership skills combined with work ethic and drive would make David an invaluable candidate + asset to any company and brand.
