As President of (electronic payments company) SignaPay, I am focused on empowering our partners and employees so they may ultimately reach their career goals and provide best-in-class products to merchants. Benefiting these groups of people is of the utmost importance to me as I work hard to exponentially boost the growth of SignaPay. I oversee all internal departments, including partner sales, marketing, client relations, risk, credit, loss prevention and accounting. With our leadership initiatives, we create and maintain symbiotic relationships with SignaPay's partners.I was previously with an industry leading payment processor, where I hired highly qualified directors to lead a multi-channel strategy. I also overhauled the company’s internal organization and brand in alignment with company goals. Additionally, I expanded all departments in my channel to ensure that the company's partners received proactive training and support. These achievements resulted in revenue growth, partner retention and consistent recruitment. The payment processing industry is rewarding, as its dynamic nature satisfies my intellectual curiosities, provides a strong forecast for expansion and relativity and offers financial rewards to those who operate diligently and consistently. SignaPay has the scale and expertise to provide the best technology and products to partners and merchants, with an emphasis on service and strong relationships. Financially sound, we have instilled a sense of confidence in our partners who are looking for a steady growth of residual revenue and a platform that supports secure operations. Our boarding tools, business management tools, gateway technology and personal consultation give our partners the edge they need. SignaPay is a rapidly growing company focused on serving partners and helping them grow. SignaPay also is committed to employing the industry's most energetic, talented and ethical individuals.
