Sales leader with 8+ years of experience driving revenue growth.
What I'm looking for
I'm a sales leader with over 8 years of experience in driving revenue growth within fast-paced startup environments. My career has been marked by a proven track record of closing complex B2B deals and managing sales teams effectively. I thrive in dynamic settings, where I can build scalable outbound strategies that lead to significant business growth.
At Sidework, I served as a Senior Account Executive for Mid-Market and Enterprise clients, where I successfully closed deals with high-profile clients such as Gregorys Coffee and Dutch Bros. My role involved leading outbound strategy development and mentoring a team of SMB sales representatives, which honed my leadership skills and deepened my understanding of sales dynamics.
Previously, I was the first Account Executive hire at Sidework, where I consistently hit targets through multi-channel lead generation. My experience also includes consulting for real estate agents on digital marketing strategies and generating leads through high-volume cold calling. I am passionate about collaborating with cross-functional teams to refine sales approaches and drive results.
