What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can drive revenue and market growth, blend sales and technical expertise, own client relationships, and contribute to strategic business and IT initiatives.

I am a sales and business development professional with over seven years of experience across technology, retail, and consultancy, focused on driving measurable revenue growth and market expansion.

At Cierra Perfumes I generated an average monthly turnover of KES 3.5 million by positioning new product lines, managing online sales cycles, and refining promotional strategies through targeted market analysis.

As a business development consultant at Rax-Tech International I secured partnerships across education, retail, and technology, implemented targeted lead generation, and completed specialized Smart School Management System training to support customer acquisition and retention.

Previously, as an IT Systems Administrator I optimized network systems, improved cybersecurity posture with firewall monitoring, and collaborated on IT budget planning and compliance policies to align technology investments with business goals.
