I currently work as a Brand Ambassador of Athens Bar Show and Market Entry & Brand Activation Advisor for premium spirits and beverage brands, supporting expansion through distributor placement, bar activations, and international guest shift programs. I have arranged 20+ international guest shifts for 2025 and supported multiple brands in securing distribution partnerships, particularly in Southern and Northern Europe.
