Summary
The past 15 years, professionally, I've worked with small business owners with marketing solutions like web campaigns and social media strategies. I am passionate about developing others, fostering strong client relationships, and selling solutions that truly meet client needs. I am now eager to transition from an owner to an in-house role in sales, customer retention, and/or marketing where I can continue to grow alongside a collaborative team and contribute to the organization’s success.
