I have had the pleasure of working in the import/export business for over 10 years and have also challenged myself by being an entrepreneur for nearly 16 years and designing my own furniture line. I started my professional career as a staff accountant because I love numbers. I still depend on this foundation for business analysis and decisions. Having a yearning for more interaction with people, I eventually turned to sales. At my next company, I was an essential part of the company’s growth and expansion into new territories. I was the leading grossing sales rep for each of my ten years there, and I was eventually promoted to Sales Manager.In my current position at Protek Cargo, Inc., I have continued to break sales records by maximizing my sales team performance through both training and motivation. My team and I have been responsible for annual double-digit percentage sales growth. I have a nose for finding new opportunities and a key ability to not only assist, but understand clients’ needs. To keep things balanced, I enjoy spending time with family, hunting, fishing, skiing, biking, hiking and camping. I’m an avid San Francisco Giants and 49ers fan – so you’ll often catch me rooting for my home team. If we meet, expect to enjoy a nice New York steak and a glass of fine red wine with me.Let’s connect and find how we can help each other.
