What I'm looking for

I am looking for a leadership role where I can coach teams, improve financial performance, and implement scalable processes in a collaborative culture.

I am a results-driven sales and operations professional with a background in finance, coaching, and education. I blend classroom experience and corporate sales leadership to train teams, improve processes, and exceed performance goals.

At CarLotz and CoStar Group I coached and managed teams, increased finance penetration and sales, and set company records for product sales. I consistently met sales goals and led initiatives that improved conversion and profitability.

As a teacher and coach I developed instruction, managed classrooms, and led athletic teams to top performance, demonstrating strong communication, mentoring, and organizational abilities. I also have hands-on experience analyzing P&L and financial data to drive business decisions.

I hold a B.S. in Computer Information Systems Management and have practical exposure to SQL Server, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, XML and process improvement methodologies like Kaizen and Six Sigma. I seek to apply my leadership, training, and analytical skills to roles that value measurable impact and team development.
