What I'm looking for

I am seeking a growth-oriented role where I can lead full-cycle sales, scale revenue, work cross-functionally, and apply data-driven strategies in a collaborative team.

I am a results-driven business development professional with experience launching products, expanding territories, and consistently exceeding revenue targets across B2B and B2C environments. I have led full-cycle sales, managed CRM processes using Salesforce, HubSpot and Apollo.io, and closed significant deals—generating $10,000+ at FreshPrints and €35,000 in delegate & sponsorship revenue at Prospero Events Group.

I bring an entrepreneurial mindset, strong client-facing skills, and hands-on leadership from startup and enterprise contexts. My background includes team leadership, pipeline management, strategic pricing, and cross-functional collaboration, and I leverage analytic training from an MSc in Big Data Science to inform data-driven sales strategies and optimize revenue outcomes.
