President's Club

I earned President’s Club at HPE after finishing the year at 178% of quota, driven by relentless outbound prospecting, strong partner alignment, and a focus on delivering outcomes that mattered to the customer. I closed multiple net-new deals by identifying whitespace opportunities, leading strategic conversations, and executing flawlessly across the sales cycle. Collaborating closely with our field and channel teams, I built pipeline from scratch and converted it with precision. The trip to Cabo was an incredible reward, but the real highlight was proving what’s possible when you combine hustle with strategy.
