El mejor profesional del departamento comercial con el que he tenido el placer de trabajar. Intuitivo, don de gentes, alta capacidad para aprender datos técnicos y nuevos conocimientos, muy valorado por los clientes y los profesionales de la empresa. Experto en buscar y crear nuevos negocios, el solo, con su trabajo, ha conseguido aumentar las ventas de Plasfi en Portugal de 0 a ser una de las empresas más reconocidas y que más venden. Solo puedo decir que contar con sus servicios es lo mejor que cualquier empresa puede hacer.
