SaaS Account Executive delivering 1.7M+ net-new ARR through consultative, value-based enterprise selling.
What I'm looking for
I’m a SaaS Account Executive with a proven record of exceeding quota at PAR Technology and Budderfly, generating $1.7M+ in net-new ARR across competitive, multi-stakeholder enterprise deals. I bring a distinct edge from 10+ years closing complex, high-value agreements built on consultative discovery and disciplined pipeline management.
At PAR Technology, I generated $1.2M+in ARR selling AI-powered restaurant SaaS to SMB and enterprise operators, and I’m on pace to exceed annual quota. I drive the full sales cycle—from cold outreach through contract execution—leading multi-stakeholder discovery, technical demos, and security/legal reviews.
Previously at Budderfly, I exceeded $1.5M ARR quota by 113%, closing $1.7M in net-new revenue and securing 5 net-new logos. I run value-based technical demos and navigate complex buying committees to secure C-suite sign-off, while maintaining clean pipeline hygiene and accurate monthly forecasting in HubSpot.
Earlier in my career, I moved into leadership roles in franchise development and business development—most notably as Director, Business Development at WOWorks and Duck Donuts, signing 100+ agreements, opening 50+ locations, and launching 100+ units across 40+ states. Across every step, my approach stays the same: connect product value to operator pain points and ROI, then guide structured approvals through to signature.
