My immediate career goal is to return to a B2B Sales Representative, Business Development position. Key strengths include business development, sales, account management, product management, technical applications and marketing. I am further motivated to get back into B2B sales since a near fatal car accident temporally sidelined my career path.I am a goal driven, over-achiever, motivated by rewards and acknowledgement of effort.My work ethic is founded on “What ever it takes” attitude and a diligent persistence to ensure all projects are completely fulfilled to the utmost. Over the years I have made major contributions on behalf of all my employers.
