What I'm looking for
I'm a Sales Development Representative with over 6 years of experience in B2B SaaS, specializing in building pipelines that convert. My journey from a neuroscientist to a tech seller has equipped me with a unique perspective on problem-solving and communication. I thrive in fast-paced environments and have a proven track record of helping startups scale through effective outbound strategies and collaboration with AEs and marketing teams.
At Uscreen, I increased reply rates by 147% and hit 114% of my quota, generating qualified pipeline across the US and LATAM markets. My time at Hotjar saw me awarded Top SDR of 2023, where I generated significant pipeline growth and led the Brazilian expansion. I pride myself on my ability to mentor peers and lead teams, ensuring that we not only meet but exceed our goals.
