Extensive background in commercial leadership roles:While concurrently studying, at 20-years, I accepted the role of Director of Sales for Adler Foods (Natural Food Company) the largest Midwest agricultural organization specializing in soy based products…... As Director of Sales, I trained and practiced sales and negotiating skills, ultimately increasing revenue 63%. These skills, and persistence, enabled leveraging important client relationships and the strategic placement of our products in top-tier grocers across the U.S and Canada i.e. Whole Foods, Publix, Trader Joe's, Wegman's).This DOS experience, also, positioned me as a food broker. To expand revenue, I participated in ECRM-online events and capitalized on prior, and new, relationships built on the foundation from Adler Foods.Fast-forwarding, I’ve progressed to Vice President of Operations for CE Partners, a leader in deregulated energy needs. From extensive dedication to learning the deregulated energy business, my main responsibility is fulfilling the high expectations we’ve instilled in our clients. Routinely managing complex and multiple projects, I ensure the focus of the organization & that our operational activities are carried out with integrity and complete effectiveness exceeding client, and all parties involved, expectations."Don't be afraid to give up the good to go for the great!"
