I’m a self-driven entrepreneur with experience in e-commerce, vehicle flipping, clothing reselling, and car repair. I’m good at finding profitable products, managing inventory, and negotiating sales. I focus on market research, setting prices, and providing great customer service. I can handle multiple projects at once, keep track of finances to ensure profits, and pay attention to details in both business and technical tasks.
