Once a lost college student with no direction, I stumbled into the world of sales and surprised myself by becoming the top performer...

 Now, I'm fully immersed in the sales life and determined to break down any barriers in my way. I'm constantly striving to exceed targets and make my mark in the industry.

"The challenge we all face is how to maintain the benefits of breadth, diverse experience, interdisciplinary thinking, and delayed concentration in a world that increasingly incentivizes, even demands, hyperspecialization" 
- David Epstein, Range: How Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World

With experience in various industries, I am a versatile and adaptable professional who leverages information and technology, GIS/mapping tech, and my education to simplify processes, increase efficiencies & accuracy, and provide the best client experience. 

I have a proven track record of success in developing and executing marketing strategies and campaigns, creating and editing engaging content, analyzing marketing data, and partnering with key media outlets and influencers.

Most recently, as the Marketing and Key Accounts Lead, not only did I foster client success, I helped build software products from nascent stages through GTM, giving insights not only from my own experience, but also from the Beta users' perspective. I deeply enjoyed working collaboratively with the product team to problem solve and deliver a better solution after each sprint.

I have collaborated cross-functionally with international teams across the whole life cycle of products. Aligning and leading marketing initiatives with the company's overall business goals in the North American market. 

I have served as the "face of the company" in multiple roles. And I excel at introducing products at trade shows, converting sales, implementing systems and training end users.

My mission is to make a difference in whatever I do by employing and taking advantage of available and relevant technologies and systems. I enjoy learning and growing, and I am always open to meaningful opportunities where I can apply my skills and expertise.

I cherish my family. And, I enjoy being active, especially if it involves a sport or the outdoors. My hobbies include carpentry - including Home Improvement Instruction, and coaching any sport, but my first love is basketball.  Please feel free to reach out, connect, follow, and react. I would love to hear from you!
