The record
The honest paper trail.
No inflated titles, no borrowed logos, no numbers I can't defend in a room. Here's the real record — experience first, because that's what actually matters.
Experience
Sales Leadership & Coaching
In the trenches with sales teams: coaching closers, rebuilding process, modeling the close live, and unsticking deals that were stuck on the human part. Hands-on, results-first.
Sales Manager
Ran a sales team in a competitive wellness market. Built a deal-acceleration approach, validated it personally before scaling it, then coached the team into it through direct mentorship.
Training sessions
Memberships
International Sales & Marketing Manager
Built and taught a simple 3-minute sales method the whole team could run to close consistently; demonstrated the close one-on-one at events and venues; ran product demos at exhibitions that turned prospects into clients; recruited and managed sales teams into high-performing groups; closed high-value B2B e-commerce deals through negotiation and custom solutions; ran a sales-focused marketing strategy that lifted visibility for many client businesses.
