I bring together a unique breadth of experiences and have worn many different hats. I’m a business development executive with experience in strategic planning and implementation. After graduating from the Kellogg School of Management, I was in charge of Business Development at a startup called Saleshound. In this role I developed the framework to identify, assess, and evaluate partnership opportunities. Then I prioritized and categorized partners, created, and delivered presentations to c-level executives at major retailers, such as Sears. In this role, I helped structure major agreements and negotiated contracts. I managed many projects from idea to completion while managing cross functional teams. I’m a community leader with significant project management experience. I’ve run a community musical with over 90 participants and a $25,000 budget. This included overseeing all the scheduling, budgeting, communications, and logistics. I’ve also chaired at least two fundraisers with over 300 attendees. I also ran social media for a NJ school and I was in charge of the directory that has over 1,000 members and worked on the data migration of all that information from one platform to another. I am an entrepreneur. I hold an undergraduate degree in Hotel Management from Cornell. I ran a local smoothie delivery business called Farm to Cup. I this role, I personally created and designed the website, the marketing/promotional materials, and packaging. I drove growth on social media and at local events around town. I’m a former equity trader at Merrill Lynch with an expertise in the technology sector. In this role, I provided market insight to institutional clients. I used the firm’s capital to increase market share and also increased profits in my list of stocks by 90% using an average of $15M in capital daily. Through these experiences I’ve discovered I have a passion for being able to identify, develop, and implement new business opportunities.
