About

I am a relationship-driven professional focused on helping brands connect with the right audiences through meaningful, well-positioned experiences. I lead cross-border initiatives between the United States and Jamaica through Zebra & Company and Castle of the Valley, building platforms that support brand visibility, audience engagement, and creative collaboration. My work spans print, packaging, digital platforms, and in-person engagement—always with a focus on personalization, storytelling, and real connection. Through this experience, I have developed strong skills in communication, relationship-building, and understanding how brands show up in the world—whether through packaging, print, or direct interaction. I am now seeking a hands-on (“boots on the ground”) sales role where I can work directly with clients, build strong relationships, and contribute to business growth in a measurable way. I am especially interested in opportunities within print, packaging, and digital solutions, where presentation and connection are key to success. Open to U.S.-based and International opportunities and ready to contribute and most importantly SELL SELL SELL. VISIT MY RESUME AT https://annmariehardina.com/aboutme
