I am a results-oriented Sales Leader with 7 years of experience in driving business growth through increased sales, exceptional client relationships, strategic partnerships, and organizational leadership.Before becoming a sales professional, I spent five years working as a teacher planning and delivering instructional activities and shaping the minds of the children. This experience turned me into an excellent communicator catering to the unique needs of people while staying current on trends and being able to embrace change quickly. Additionally, I considered a failing student to be my responsibility; therefore, I held myself accountable for the performance of each of my students and looked for ways to measure their progress and seek new solutions to succeed. Being an educator equipped me with skills I call on every day to drive the sales process. From understanding that each person/client needs to be treated individually to adopting strategies that deliver results, I have a unique perspective that allows me to coach, develop, and lead people to impactful goals in the sales context.When given the opportunity to switch career paths to technology / SaaS sales, I jumped at the opportunity to join Dropbox, the world’s first smart workplace with 600M users across 180 countries that offers document management software products. Starting as a Business Development Representative creating net opportunities and driving pipeline, I proved to be a top performer consistently exceeding quota measured in qualified opportunities. It took me nine months to earn the Account Executive role where I was able to manage the full sales cycle generating $447K of business in five quarters. Having demonstrated exceptional results, I then took on the role of the Enterprise Sales Manager leading a team of nine sales representatives that achieved up to 165% of the sales quota per quarter. I am a big-picture thinker who loves to take responsibility and lead others. My leadership focus has always been set on relationship development and positive reinforcement of all team members.
