  • I had 2 separate roles within my tenure - 1. merchant acquisition for LazMall (a channel within Lazada) 2. business development for Lazada omnichannel solutions (details on my LinkedIn)

  • Internally, I worked with local and regional teams and across functions like customer care team, product & tech teams

  • More than 60% of my tenure was Working-from-Home (WFH)
