years of professional experience
I come from an experienced oil and gas background that I incorporate into my current account management role. I possess the ability to provide perspective from a customer stand point and utilize this to build strong relationships with customer stakeholders. I have management experience that allows me to recognize customers communication silos and act accordingly to identify decision makers for successful conversations regarding product discussion. I am looking to gain more knowledge in account management to progress me further in my career. I enjoy working with clients and helping provide solutions to solve issues that directly impact their operations and profitability of their organization.
