What I'm looking for

I’m looking to leverage exceptional communication, sales, and customer relationship skills to drive results and exceed targets for a dynamic, growth-focused organization—using metrics-driven prospecting, objection handling, and pipeline management to win.

I’m a highly motivated SDR with hands-on B2B tech sales experience, driven by communication, sales execution, and strong customer relationships. Most recently as a Remote Sales Representative, I consistently ranked in the top 10–20% of sales associates, handling 50–80 inbound/outbound calls daily and achieving an estimated 25–35% conversion rate on qualified calls.

In B2B tech sales, I generated 100+ calls/day, delivered 30%+ email open rates with 10–15% response rates through personalized outreach, and booked 8–12 qualified meetings/month with decision-makers using multi-channel prospecting. I maintain and manage a pipeline of 100+ prospects in Salesforce and HubSpot, lead discovery conversations to qualify leads, and pass high-quality opportunities to Account Executives—bringing urgency, objection-handling, and a metrics-driven mindset to every target.
