I drive education programs and revenue growth through CRM-led marketing.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Education Coordinator and Sales Manager with 10+ years of experience blending academic instruction with business development. I coordinate educational programs while driving revenue growth through cross-functional leadership and CRM-driven campaigns.
In my most recent role as a Social Media Marketing and Sales Manager, I spearheaded social media and marketing strategies to grow audiences and optimize lead generation pipelines. I also directed sales initiatives, aligned sales targets with marketing campaigns, and refined customer acquisition through data-driven CRM improvements.
Previously, as an International Admission Officer, I engineered strategic recruitment plans and managed the full B2C enrollment lifecycle. I served as the primary liaison for lead nurturing, application tracking, and multi-channel marketing communications—driving high conversions through consultative, persistent advising.
Earlier experience includes coordinating educational programs and academic operations, building aggressive B2B and B2C sales strategies, and developing lesson content and specialized curricula. I’ve led educator teams, supported parent and corporate relationships, and even founded and ran a study center from inception—building go-to-market strategy, partnerships, and scalable operations.
