What I'm looking for

I seek a senior sales leadership role where I can drive national growth, own P&L, scale teams, lead product launches, and collaborate cross-functionally in regulated healthcare or wellness sectors.

I am a mission-driven sales operations leader with more than 10 years of experience transforming Canadian markets in medical aesthetics, nutraceuticals, and wellness. I align local execution with global strategies to scale customer acquisition and exceed KPIs.

I have led full P&L territories and national businesses, delivering double-digit growth including 115% of quota and a 53% increase in brand penetration, and driving +83% growth in a national role through territory optimization and data-driven planning.

I build and coach high-performing regional and remote teams, design market-specific go-to-market plans, and partner with marketing and education to accelerate product adoption and execute national launches while maintaining regulatory and quality compliance.

I hold an Executive MBA, possess intermediate French proficiency, and bring a collaborative, metrics-driven leadership style focused on scaling revenue, developing talent, and ensuring operational excellence in regulated sectors.
