With over two decades of diverse experience across the real estate, telecom, hospitality, and travel industries, I bring a proven track record of propelling businesses large and small towards unprecedented growth. My journey has honed my skills not only as an award winning sales leader and an active Real Estate Broker but also as a transformational people leader and coach. My knack for win/win negotiations has turned visions into attainable targets, making me a consistent target overachiever.I hold an MBA from Queen’s University as well as a Bachelor’s in Business Administration with a focus on Computer Science from Simon Fraser University, laying a solid foundation for my sales career.My career highlights include being the founding department leader for three entrepreneurial companies, establishing operational frameworks, and crafting winning strategies. My forte in building distribution channels from scratch and negotiating agreements has seen businesses soar from ground zero to remarkable heights. My stint at NCK Restaurants saw a single restaurant morph into a thriving chain of nine outlets, boosting annual sales from $300K to $6M in just three years.My journey through various industries has not only diversified my experience but also refined my ability to create and accelerate high performing teams. Whether it was recruiting, training, or coaching over 1,100 dealers, resellers, sales reps, and managers across multiple companies, the goal was always to over-achieve sales targets, by upwards of 190%. My philosophy of nurturing a customer-centric culture resonates through my strong client relationships and in the real estate sector where I always prioritize top-tier customer service.I am always open to connecting with like-minded professionals and exploring opportunities where I can contribute my expansive skill set.
