Sales-focused customer service professional leveraging athletic leadership to drive membership growth.
What I'm looking for
I am a relationship-driven kinesiology graduate and former NCAA Division I athlete who excels at connecting with people and driving results in sales and customer-facing roles. My background includes membership sales, youth coaching, and operational logistics across fast-paced environments.
I have led structured youth fitness programs, converted trial participants into active memberships, and supported large-scale production and fulfillment operations, demonstrating strong communication, leadership, and organizational skills. I also developed customized training programs as an independent personal trainer and produced fitness content to engage online audiences.
I bring a competitive mindset, proven event-planning and team leadership experience, and certifications in CPR/First Aid and KidStrong Level 1 coaching. I am seeking opportunities to build a long-term career in sales where I can leverage my people skills, coaching experience, and operational know-how.
