I am a business development manager with over a decade of experience in developing and implementing growth strategies. Throughout my career, I have consistently exceeded sales targets, scaled existing accounts, and increased brand visibility through thought leadership and content marketing. With a strong focus on market analysis, relationship building, client service, and solution selling, I have successfully driven growth for various organizations.

As a freelance business development and growth strategist, I provide valuable advice to consultants on engagement models, proposal strategy, client onboarding, and sales process improvement. I also create sales and marketing assets such as proposals, website content, case studies, decks, and print materials. One of my notable achievements includes analyzing a multi-store retail business and delivering 34 tactical opportunities to increase cash flow and customer engagement.

In my previous roles as a business development manager and account manager, I exceeded quarterly sales targets and scaled existing accounts. I qualified prospective clients, led discovery calls, managed the CRM, and wrote SOWs. I also evaluated inbound opportunities and prepared responses to RFPs, RFIs, and RFQs from high-profile prospects. Additionally, I managed $4MM of business and scaled accounts as an account manager.
