What I'm looking for

I seek a B2B sales or business development role at a growth-focused company where I can drive pipeline growth, collaborate cross-functionally, and scale revenue using data-driven outreach and supply chain domain knowledge.

I am a results-driven business development professional with hands-on experience generating qualified leads, managing pipelines in Salesforce, and engaging senior decision-makers across North American supply chain and retail sectors. I combine strong commercial acumen from roles at Algo and Rolustech with practical marketing and outreach skills developed through internships, producing measurable outcomes such as 24 qualified leads from NASCES’24 and record sales at Hira Ali Studios.

With a background in Economics and Finance, I leverage analytical thinking and supply chain knowledge to align product value with client needs, collaborate across GTM, product, and marketing teams, and continuously refine outreach using tools like ZoomInfo, Apollo, HubSpot, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator. I am motivated to scale B2B revenue, build long-term client relationships, and contribute to data-driven go-to-market strategies.
