Experienced professional and IT enthusiast seeking opportunities within Sales Engineering where I can use my 12+ years of experience to implement relevant customer solutions. I possess software versatility that allows me to merge cloud understanding with my security foundation gained in the Security+ to meet the varied needs of customers. Strong organizational and analytical skills, as well as an ability to manage and reconcile complex financial transactions will undergird my success. Throughout my career I have a track record of building and maintain relationships with clients and industry professionals, which has resulted in increased sales volume and informed customers. Entrepreneurially, my hand-to-hand marketing and sales experience I gain as a music manager infuses me with the adaptability to transition between B2B (artist to venue/company) and B2C (physical and digital merch and music sales to customers). In addition to my software versatility and experience, I also possess excellent communication and negotiation skills which I have used to successfully close complex financial deals at various stops in my journey. I endeavor to empathetically assist in the sales of transformational technology to any customer I encounter.
