    • Orozco Sales

      Jan 2009 - Jan 2011
      Founder of Orozco Sales Start-Up

      Invested my savings in wholesale liquidation lots from major retailers and consumer goods manufacturing companies from abroad that I would then re-distribute to small business owners or the public via mobile vending marletplaces.Major tasks included inventory management, sales, customer service, pricing and business development strategy. On average, my business was able to redistribute a 20 foot-equivalent container of consumer goods bi-monthly.Profits were robust due to the liquidation price in which the merchandise was acquired through auction distribution centers and my overhead was sustainable due to shared storage costs between other vendors operating at my scale.

    • Embassy of Mexico, D.C

      Jun 2013 - Sept 2013
      Intern

      Interned for the Latino and Regional Affairs diplomat to assist him with the responsibilities of his office. My tasks included tracking immigration laws and initiatives, attending and briefing conferences, translating documents, canalizing consular assistance petitions and briefing studies or specialized articles for my supervisors. The insight I gained as an intern was the importance of understanding the technicalities of policy and how specific departments of an organization reflect its tasks and mission. This means that there must be an understanding of national and international conditions that exist in order to create specific and appropriate responses to address problems or challenges. Show less
