What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that allows me to leverage my sales expertise while fostering team growth and innovation.

I'm an accomplished sales professional with extensive experience in designing and implementing successful sales and marketing strategies. My journey in sales has been marked by a consistent ability to build and maintain professional relationships, which has been pivotal in achieving outstanding sales results. At Curated.com, I ranked among the top 10 experts in total sales, generating over $500,000 in online sales since 2023. My commitment to excellence has also earned me invitations to Curated Golf Summits, recognizing my contributions to the company.

Previously, as a Sales Manager at Granata Fitness, I tripled sales within three years by developing effective sales strategies and training programs for our coaching team. My leadership skills were further honed during my tenure as Head Golf Professional and General Manager at Rivers Edge Golf Club, where I managed day-to-day operations and nurtured relationships with local businesses and charities. My diverse experience across various sales roles has equipped me with exceptional problem-solving, multitasking, and time management skills, making me a valuable asset in any sales environment.
