Some of my Sales & Marketing background first..I am skilled and accomplished leader in both Director level and Sr. Manager positions handling Sales & Marketing functions for High Technology business sectors in Digital Printing for past 20 years for multi-national corporations with revenues exceeding $600 million. Designed and supervised the building of a high – technology center 23,000 sq ft showroom, demo center, shipping, and tech training facility with complete P&L Regional responsibility in Irving TX contributing revenues more than $5.5 million dollars towards our corporate goals. Managed over 8 employees for Mimaki USA in this center for a world leading Japanese manufacturer of Digital printers and cutting devices used in boat wraps, signage, graphic arts, decals, soft signage textiles and industrial printer platform products. www.mimakiusa.com I have worked for several Marinas during the weekends in Lake Lanier Georgia in the past doing part time work for weekends and holidays earlier in my career path.

Enough about my background and past, moving forward now..

I am currently looking for sales or marketing opportunities in the Marine and Boating Marketplace. I can represent a Boating Manufacturer or Marine OEM Component suppliers selling to manufacturers or dealers. Skill strengths are in Sales, Marketing and Management using my talents and abilities.

My future goals and career desires is to now get out of Digital Print and back to my love of everything aquatic including Sales, Marketing, or Management opportunities for Marina and Boating organizations that could use my education, business background and experience for a position in this Maritime Marketplace. Having recently moved from Dallas TX after 3 years of being landlocked from the Oceans, I am ready for a quality of life experience career change by working for a maritime business off the waters on the coast of Florida.

My family has always been around the Marine business with my Father as President of S.E.L. Maduro Stevedoring based out of Port of Miami, a Brother recently retired as a Longshoreman in Ft. Lauderdale and served in the USCG service. I have always been around boats all my life growing up and handled my parents Bertram, Hatteras, and Egg Harbor boats during my time living in Miami while attending and graduating from the University of Miami -Rosenthiel School of Marine Science with a B.S. degree in Marine Sciences.

I know this is a detailed cover letter, but I really have a passion to work again in the Marine and Boating Marketplace in one form or another if your organization can see my “value proposition” and make the most of my talents and abilities in sales, marketing or management roles in your organization. I am prepared and open to discuss re-location if necessary as long as it is in Florida, as I am single, can re-locate, but do prefer the West coast of Florida.
