Channel Development & Management ★ Global Accounts ★ Enterprise Solution Sales ★ Start Up, Fast-Growth & Fortune 25 Sales Environments As a strategic sales leader, I consistently set the stage for exponential growth by building and nurturing relationships at all levels of leadership, then crafting highly customized solutions that scale and grow with the long-term needs of my clients’ business. I’ve never met a challenge that didn’t motivate me, and have harnessed that entrepreneurial spirit as founder of my own import and distribution company, strategic sales executive for Verizon Enterprise, and global account manager for multiple WAN/fiber networking start-ups. Currently a global director at Masergy managing our strategic alliance with Cisco, I architected, implemented, and brought a custom billing solution to market that enables Cisco VARs to maintain client relationships and top-line billing for cloud communications solutions. At Masergy, I have developed and managed strategic relationships across each sales channel and am currently heading up a newly created division, charged with cultivating, strengthening, and enhancing our relationships with global systems integrators. Previously, as a global accounts manager, I was the Top 3 for six straight years and won Chairman’s Award 6X. I built the territory from the ground up, and consistently outperformed the field in new business and portfolio growth. I continually excel in a global marketplace by listening to the needs of business owners, thinking outside the box to deliver multi-platform solutions, and nurturing continued growth inside my portfolio. I enjoy coaching and developing up-and-coming sales talent, and work closely with marketing and product development stakeholders on solution design and market entry strategy.
