What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, encourages collaboration, and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I am a growth-focused business development executive with over 8 years of experience driving multi-market expansion and client acquisition across AMER, EMEA, and APAC. My proven track record includes consistently exceeding sales targets by 15–115% while managing high-value client relationships and scaling business units from $0 to multi-million dollar operations. I excel in developing and executing data-driven growth strategies and sustainable revenue generation initiatives across diverse sectors including AgriTech, E-commerce, Consumer Electronics, and Energy.

In my current role as Head of Business Development & Client Growth at Field & Waldo Inc., I successfully delivered $1.2M in revenue within 24 months through structured client engagement strategies. I have managed cross-functional teams and built KPI ecosystems that improved decision accuracy significantly. My previous roles have equipped me with the skills to optimize product/channel mixes and maintain high retention rates, contributing to substantial revenue growth and operational efficiency.

With a strong foundation in economics and a commitment to driving results, I am passionate about leveraging my expertise to create impactful business strategies that foster growth and innovation. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can lead teams to achieve ambitious goals and drive sustainable success.
