About

My name is Dirk Schindler and I am an international sales professional. You will see me shine in projects in which pragmatism and creativity go hand in hand. I enjoy the game of reaching the maximum outcome both for my clients and for the companies I work for. Personal development is a must in order to keep my brain going and the ideas coming.

These are some of the countries I have lived in or countries I have visited on a regular basis: Singapore, Colombia, Germany, Spain, Qatar, UAE, Thailand, Japan, Mexico, and the USA. Throughout my career, I represented companies selling solution driven, high-value products.
