About Calli Carnahan Zauner

Like most, I fell into sales accidentally. Unlike most, I realized my love for data-driven decision-making early in my career. From there, my path to leadership developed naturally.I\'m a midwestern-raised, strong, outgoing sales leader who thrives on exceeding goals. I\'m a proud data nerdexcited by a strategic plan with the skills to inspire others to get on board, too. I enjoy relationship building,appreciate CRM systems, and believe in a strong sales funnel. I\'m an endlessly curious lifetime learner who found a home in cross-functional team leadership.I wear heels to stand out, use Grammarly to sound smarter, leverage Google to help me learn and blamemotherhood for wrinkles. I\'m a motivated, happy, hard-working VP of Sales with fourteen years of experience selling, ten years of experience managing, and my lifetime years being just a little goofy.
