Experience

1. Technical Sales Consultant - Unified Communication

   Spectrum Business

   Mar 2026 — Present

   As a pre-sales Technical Sales Consultant specializing in Unified Communication as a Service (UCaaS), I work closely with a robust sales team to help businesses modernize their legacy phone systems. My primary focus is identifying strategic opportunities for clients to leverage a UCaaS solution that integrates seamlessly into their operations. I take a consultative approach, guiding them to a unified platform—a single pane of glass—that not only consolidates their communication tools but also adds powerful AI-driven features and API integrations. My goal is to empower clients with a flexible, scalable solution that transforms how they collaborate, communicate, and grow their business.
