What I'm looking for

I’m seeking remote opportunities in Business Development, B2B Sales, Partnerships, Client Acquisition, Customer Success, Account Management, Growth, Growth Marketing, and Business Operations. I’m particularly interested in international companies and roles offering strong career growth, meaningful ownership, and competitive compensation.

I’m a BBA graduate with professional experience across business development, sales, client acquisition, customer relationship management, and operations. I’ve worked in education and real estate, managing high-volume sales pipelines, qualifying leads, conducting consultative conversations, handling objections, and building relationships with diverse clients, including NRI and HNI customers. In my previous role in education sales, I managed 400+ prospects and contributed to 235 paid enrollments within four months. I also have experience with CRM management, lead tracking, follow-ups, stakeholder coordination, reporting, and negotiation. I’m particularly interested in remote and growth-oriented opportunities in business development, B2B sales, partnerships, customer success, and account management. I enjoy roles where I can combine communication, analytical thinking, relationship building, and commercial problem-solving. I’m looking for an opportunity where I can take ownership, contribute to measurable business outcomes, and continue developing my career in a fast-paced, international environment.
