What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a challenging role where I can grow markets, build long-term client partnerships, lead teams, and drive revenue through education, training, consulting, or digital innovation solutions.

I've built education and training revenue across Africa for eLearn Africa LMS, Digital Skills Academy, Laureate Online Education, and Regenesys Business School. At Digital Skills Academy, I helped grow student numbers from fewer than 50 to more than 250 in two years and generated over $320,000 in business as a top sales performer.

With over 20 years of sales and marketing experience, I develop partnerships, win new business, manage key accounts, lead recruitment teams, and deliver proposals, tenders, presentations, and projects. I enjoy creating new markets, building long-term client relationships, and driving revenue through practical, client-focused solutions.
