What I'm looking for

I seek a leadership sales role where I can drive revenue growth, mentor teams, close enterprise SaaS deals, and build long-term client partnerships in a high-velocity, strategic environment.

I am a dynamic sales leader with over 12 years of experience consistently surpassing quotas for 11 consecutive years and driving national revenue growth through strategic planning, negotiation, and customer-retention strategies. I have a proven track record selling cloud-based and SaaS enterprise solutions, cultivating long-term customer relationships, and mentoring junior account managers to increase company revenue.

My strengths include pipeline optimization, contract negotiation, Salesforce expertise, and delivering persuasive presentations to stakeholders at all levels; I lead teams with a tenacious, analytical approach and focus on forecasting accuracy, cross-sell/up-sell growth, and operational excellence to deliver measurable business outcomes.
