Over 36 years of experience in quota-based account management and consultative sales. Early career: I enjoyed successfully building relationships, developing, and implementing consultative solutions to all business markets for account retention and growth.
Aggressive self-starter with the ability to develop a sales territory/account base, build executive relationships, articulate advanced technology solutions and business strategies, and create demand to close business. Vast experience successfully selling complex, multi-technology solutions involving Data/Voice Networks, Unified Communications, MPLS, Web Hosting, Managed Services and core switching and routing infrastructure. After leaving network infrastructure sales in 2010, I started my career in the solar industry and have loved every minute of it, including the challenges. Throughout the past 15 years, I’ve grown to understand the Utility Companies (SCE, SDG&E, PG&E, LADWP, NV Energy, and various others). Gained a comprehensive knowledge of the hardware providers (Panasonic, LG, Qcell, REC, SunPower, and their value propositions, as well as supporting manufacturers such as SolarEdge, Enphase, Hoymiles, etc.) I have also been providing Tesla battery solutions for about 6 years and possess the ability to explain SGIP and other incentives to prospective customers. I’ve been offering Enphase storage solutions for over 3 years. I enjoy selling because I love people. I have the unique ability to establish trust and rapport early in the sales process, which I truly believe is my greatest strength.

I use to enter BBQ competions and one day a friend (competitor) asked me if I'd bring my team to the VA in West LA to help cook for 5000 Veterans and their families. I of course said yes! I fell in love with it and for the last 12 years I've been cooking for Wounded Warriors at Camp Pendleton and I enjoy it tremendously.
