What I'm looking for

I’m looking to grow in insurance sales with a client-first, consultative style—closing confidently, building referral pipelines, and delivering consistent service. I thrive in fast-paced, commission-driven environments where follow-up and relationships win.

I’m a licensed Property & Casualty professional in Illinois with a Bachelor of Science in Finance, built on consultative selling, direct sales, and strong client relationship management. I bring a high-energy, objection-focused approach—quickly building trust and converting cold leads into closed outcomes.

Right now, I’m prospecting and closing residential solar energy contracts through high-activity door-to-door canvassing at Sunrun, consistently meeting and exceeding weekly and monthly sales quotas. Previously, I built referral-driven client bases as a self-employed personal trainer, and I strengthened my operational discipline through roles like Process Operator at Ingredion (including SAP tracking) and Catering Manager work using Excel—skills I apply to follow-up rigor, pipeline discipline, and service continuity.
