As a passionate and collaborative team leader, I have led cross-functional teams, supported their professional growth, and fostered a culture of knowledge sharing for productivity improvement. My core competencies include territory management, strategic sales and marketing plans, business development, and account management. In my most recent role as Vice President of Sales, I have boosted Southwest territory growth from 10K to over 100K units in one year through strategic initiatives, including daily meetings, networking, and client acquisition. I educated and onboarded property management companies on LeaseLock's AI-powered platform, which resulted in revenue maximization and reduced bad debt. With a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism and Communications from Ohio State University and additional training in Challenger Sales, I bring a unique blend of communication and sales expertise to every role. As a member of AMA, UAA, and IAA, I actively engaged in professional associations and volunteer work, further enriching my industry knowledge and network. Whether it's fostering C-suite relationships, conducting market visits, or mentoring sales talent, I thrive in dynamic environments where collaboration, innovation, and client satisfaction intersect.
