About

I am a highly passionate and devoted sales representative with over 12 years of experience in the high-end fashion field. I studied silversmithing and jewellery making at City Lit, Covent Garden and achieved the highest sales level for Women's Wear at Selfridges. After being recruited by Chanel in 2012, I got promoted to the position of Chanel Watches Expert. Later I further demonstrated my enthusiasm to build my knowledge in every sales division of the company and acquired an extensive understanding of all product categories (such as Accessories, Ready-to-Wear, and Shoes). I have been honoured with the Harrods Club One Hundred and Millionaire Club awards. With over a decade of working at Harrods and gaining a wealth of knowledge in customer service, I am now looking to advance my sales career within the luxury fashion or fine jewellery world.
