Sales & Business Development · Digital Growth
Performance-focused sales and marketing professional with hands-on experience in B2B/B2C acquisition, CRM, lead generation, and conversion-driven campaigns. Founder of two startups. Built to close.
The Approach
Every lead has a reason.
Every close has a system.
I combine field sales grit with digital growth precision — from cold outreach and in-person demos to Google Ads, Meta campaigns, and CRO. Co-founder of two startups. MBA in Core Marketing. Skilled in pipeline management, negotiation, and revenue acceleration. I don't chase vanity metrics. I build relationships, hit targets, and deliver results you can measure.
