Caio Amaral
3 Yardley Street, Avonhead,Christchurch
Summary
My name is Caio Amaral, I'm 32 years old, single and a student at CCEL College of English in Christchurch.
I have a degree in administration with a focus on business and I also have a technological background in viticulture and oenology. Since deciding to enter the wine market in 2017, I have been working with what I love.
My work over the last 7 years has been focused on the commercial area with sales, developing new businesses with partners and customers. I have taken specialized courses and tasted a lot of wines for my personal development.
I want to continue to learn about the New Zealand market and build a solid career, as New Zealand presents many opportunities for professional development and has been gaining international prominence with wines of great expression and quality.
