What I'm looking for

I seek a senior sales/marketing role at a growth-focused company where I can build partnerships, lead high-visibility campaigns, mentor teams, and drive measurable revenue increases.

I am an experienced national sales and marketing director with a decade leading revenue growth for group travel and youth sports destinations, skilled in market research, cold calling, proposals, presentations, and strategic partnerships. I consistently drove year-over-year growth (average 12% annually at Traveling Teams, Inc.), led sponsorship activations and digital campaigns at 10+ annual trade shows, and mentored sales teams to improve cross-departmental alignment and client satisfaction.

My background spans industries including education, real estate, energy services, and retail, and I bring strong event housing and technology knowledge, public relations experience, and a data-driven approach to problem solving. I am seeking opportunities to leverage my diverse skill set to build partnerships, elevate brands, and drive measurable business growth.
