Background

About Brian Wheeler

Hello! I’m a finance and operations professional with a passion for turning numbers into insights that make a real difference. With a Master of Public Administration from Kennesaw State University, I bring a blend of analytical skills and people-centered thinking to every role. I have also managed sales operations and CRM (Salesforce), improving data accuracy and increasing sales productivity by 15%. Identified and nurtured leads, supporting revenue growth through relationship-building and strategic outreach. Before diving into finance and sales, I spent years in the music industry, learning a lot about people management, event coordination, and marketing. That background shaped my ability to think creatively, build strong relationships, and stay calm under pressure—skills I still rely on today. My journey also includes work with Georgia Center for Opportunity, where I took on roles in donor relations, Salesforce administration, and event planning, all aimed at helping us grow and connect with our community. I’m hands-on with data and love using tools like QuickBooks, Excel, and Salesforce to find new ways to optimize processes to help identify and convert leads. I’m always up for a challenge, eager to learn, and excited to connect with others who share a commitment to our collective success. Let’s connect—I’m always open to new ideas and conversations about making work (and life) more meaningful.
