MASSY

En résumé

Highly motivated, I can work under pressure. I have strong technical background and good leadership and management skills. The technical experience I acquired in managing or being involved in various projects, operational works, combined with the knowledge I gained so far from my Project Management studies (PMP), gave me a clearer view of the mobile telecom business and a better understanding on how to deal with risks, forecasts and improvement of positive impacts on GSM Business.
