My expertise in SaaS sales and corporate partnerships, particularly in the United States, has allowed me to consistently deliver results in competitive markets. I thrive on building meaningful relationships and executing data-driven strategies that lead to impactful outcomes.

Throughout my career, I have achieved significant milestones, including generating millions in sales across various industries and increasing online donations by 35% at Health Access Connect. My role as Partnerships and Grants Manager has enabled me to spearhead initiatives that enhance donor engagement and streamline communication through effective CRM systems. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to create positive change and drive success in every project I undertake.
