Top-performing, results driven Sales Director with over a decade of experience in the media industry. Collaborative leader who consistently delivers exceptional results. Persuasive communicator, dedicated to driving revenue growth while building and strengthening client relations. I generate new business by using a consultative selling approach and am adept at leading all stages of the sales cycle, from lead generation to deal closing and expansion. Currently, I am the Sales Director at Golfweek I USA TODAY Sports, where I have consistently exceeded my annual and quarterly sales quotas over the last eleven years. I strive to build strong relationships with my team and senior leadership to ensure that all moving parts within the business are tied together with a common objective.
