Bio
Joe Marko
David was hired as an intern to help us study the North American Motorsport Market in preparation for the launch of a new line of Takata Racing harnessbelts aimed at both the Racing and Tuning markets. In less than 3 months David successfully vetted a new dealer distribution network allowing us to get our product to the best dealers much quicker than we could have accomplished without his efforts. He contacted the dealers by phone and email and effectively completed the necessary follow-up. David also helped us with the marketing plan for the new product line and worked closely with our marketing consultant on several critical launch issues including a new web site. David was the most effective intern we have had to date at HMS both in what he accomplished and in his ability to work and fit in with the rest of the team. It was a pleasure to have him with us for the summer.
Martin Nadol
I worked with David during his internship at SCHROTH Safety Products when he was writing his Bachelor's thesis about a possible sales strategy for our company in India. David is a talented, open-minded and broadly interested young man. He has excellent communication skills in both German and English language and is a natural team player. In the future I can easily see him in a sales or business development role in which he will be an asset to any employer.
