What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities and a collaborative culture.

I am a dynamic sales professional with over 7 years of experience in full-cycle B2B sales, specializing in market strategy and direct customer acquisition. Currently, I am an Account Executive at a stealth-mode startup, where I play a pivotal role in driving revenue growth and optimizing outbound strategies across EMEA and NAMER. My proven track record includes closing both 5- and 6-figure deals while navigating the complexities of early-stage startups.

Previously, I served as a Team Lead at CoachHub, where I managed a team of 11 BDRs, achieving 128% of our target in FY23 and generating €23.4M in pipeline. I am adept at building KPI-driven workflows and enhancing cross-functional collaboration, which has significantly improved lead quality and pipeline efficiency. My multilingual skills in English, Italian, French, and Spanish enable me to connect with diverse clients and teams, further enhancing my effectiveness in sales.
