About

I am a sales and marketing professional. With my education focused on marketing in the Hospitality industry, paired with my tech sales and product marketing experience, I've a comprehensive understanding of what it takes to make a business successful in both B2B and B2C transactions. It starts with the targeted and informed development of a product, brand or service, continues with the tactical sale of that product/service, and "ends" with the proactive and engaged post-sale relationship with your customer. As a tech savvy and analytical Bay Area native living in San Francisco, I am always looking for opportunities to network and collaborate with likeminded individuals. See you out there!
