In this role, I helped drive more than 170% year-over-year growth while building a disciplined, strategy-driven operating model focused on sustainable, profitable expansion.What sets me apart is how I lead. I believe strong results come from strong people. My leadership style is rooted in servant leadership, accountability, and clarity of purpose.

I enjoy working in environments that value integrity, collaboration, and continuous improvement, and I take pride in being a leader others trust to do the right thing for customers, teams, and the business.If you are interested in connecting around sales leadership, growth strategy, or building high-performing teams, I welcome the conversation.
