Paola is a natural problem-solver with a knack for customer service. She has a deep understanding of International Transport, Customs Brokerage, and is educated in Trade Law. We often (accurately) brag that we have one of the best Operations Managers in the industry. When you need someone to navigate multi-jurisdictional and multi-party disputes, Paola is the Sealion team member you want in your corner.
Before joining Sealion, Paola’s accomplishments were already lofty. She started in meat and produce trading before moving to the glitzy world of beer, wine, and spirit logistics. She now takes a hands-on approach leading our team of Logistics Specialists. When she’s enjoying time away from the office you’ll find her in yoga class, dancing salsa and cranking the latest Latin beats.
Additional Expertise
Paola is the resource we all count on to ensure that air freight compliance procedures are followed day in and day out. Extremely hands on, you’ll find her constantly checking Flight Status’ to initiate Import Clearance Procedures as soon as cargo is airborne.
Customs Brokerage
Paola is a Certified Customs Specialist (CCS) and takes lead on coordinating Customs Brokerage, Duty Drawbacks, ATA Carnet Certificates, and Remanifests. She also guides our team’s preparation of Export Documentation, Certificates of Origin (COO), and Export Declarations.
