About

With 8+ years experience in B2B SaaS sales, success has been built on curiosity, a relentless drive to win, and a proven ability to build long-term relationships. In first developing a deep understanding of customer needs, connecting the right people, and only then executing on business plans, the results have consistently led to being a top-performer on all teams. The motivation to perform at the highest level stems from an innate competitiveness, and passion for serving clients beyond signature. Other areas of interest include strategic management and social psychology — especially as it pertains to team dynamics, client relations (sales cycles), and customer trends in the market.
