I had the pleasure of working with Hugo at Merama, he was part of my team (International Expansion Team). Hugo is an exceptional individual with a wide range of skills and qualities that make him an invaluable asset to any team or organization. One of Hugo's biggest strengths, in my opinion, is his unwavering positive attitude. Regardless of the challenges or obstacles that arise, he always approaches them with a can-do mindset. Rather than focusing on the barriers, Hugo consistently seeks out innovative solutions and finds ways to make things happen. His optimism and determination are contagious, and they have undoubtedly contributed to the success of numerous projects. Another remarkable quality of Hugo is his independence. With only a few guidelines and the expected results, he is able to take charge and deliver outstanding outcomes. His ability to work autonomously is truly impressive, and he consistently demonstrates a high level of initiative and self-motivation. You can always count on Hugo to handle his responsibilities with utmost professionalism and efficiency. Hugo's versatility is also worth mentioning. He has successfully taken on a variety of projects, ranging from the internationalization of brands through M-ID to assisting our merchants in launching new markets independently. Additionally, he has played a pivotal role in closing deals with distributors, showcasing his adaptability and skill in different areas of business. Hugo's versatility makes him an ideal candidate for roles involving project management, ecommerce, and brand internationalization. Moreover, Hugo is an exceptional team player. He is always willing to lend a helping hand and goes above and beyond to support his colleagues. I have witnessed him cover for his teammates when needed, demonstrating his reliability and dedication to the success of the team as a whole. Furthermore, Hugo actively shares best practices, contributing to the improvement of the entire team's performance. His collaborative nature and willingness to foster a positive and supportive work environment make him a true pleasure to work with. Also, Hugo's ability to both receive and give feedback sets him apart. He understands the importance of continuous improvement and actively seeks feedback to enhance his own skills and performance. Moreover, he provides constructive feedback to his colleagues, helping them grow and develop professionally. This open and constructive approach to feedback is instrumental in driving team improvement and achieving success. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Hugo for any role related to project management, ecommerce, brand internationalization, or similar areas. His positive attitude, independence, versatility, team-player mentality, and feedback skills make him a standout professional. Hugo is an asset to any organization, and I have no doubt that he will make significant contributions wherever he goes.

Hugo and I were part of the same team, the International Expansion Team; our goal was to launch brands into our countries and ensure their commercial success. Even though we supervised different countries, Hugo and I worked closely in some projects and I have to say that personally and professionally, Hugo is amazing. He is a passionate and driven individual, he is self motivated, he is talented and he is always warm and welcoming. For these reasons, I would highly recommend working with him.
