What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a consultative, data-driven freight/logistics sales role where I can build pipeline, run tailored demos for digital supply chain capabilities, partner with operations for clean documentation, and keep scaling enterprise accounts.

I’m an “engineer at heart” Account Executive focused on problem solving the things my customers use, want, and need—turning Data and logic into consultative, true solution selling.

In freight and supply chain, I’ve generated $1.7M+ booked freight pipeline within 12 months via outbound prospecting and trade show networking, while closing $3M+ in revenue through China–USWC, India–US, and intra-Asia lanes. I run tailored platform demos that drive adoption of predictive ETAs, milestone tracking, vendor management, visibility dashboards, and PO lifecycle management.

I also balance commercial outcomes with operational rigor—negotiating fixed-rate contracts to stabilize margin, directing RFP responses with Incoterms and documentation standards, and maintaining 95%+ documentation accuracy to reduce customs holds. Earlier in my career, I led Lean Six Sigma work at Abbott Diagnostics, delivering $1.8M in annual cost savings, and bring that same structured mindset to sales execution and forecasting.
