I bring a strong background in accuracy, efficiency, organization and respect, developed through years of fast-paced, detail-driven, customer facing professional environments. My work experience began in high-volume service and production roles where precision, consistency, and adherence to established standards were essential. I was responsible for preparing projects to exact specifications while maintaining quality and accuracy under pressure while maintaining civility. This foundation strengthened my ability to focus on details while meeting strict productivity expectations. I have worked in customer facing operations in roles that required careful coordination, record tracking, and multitasking. Managing large volumes of transactions reinforced my ability to stay organized, follow procedures precisely, and maintain quality daily. Scheduling, service coordination, and client-specific requests, ensuring all information was recorded and communicated correctly is in my training and can be applied here. Additionally, my academic and professional experiences further strengthened my discipline, adaptability, and attention to structured processes. I am highly organized, dependable, and comfortable working independently and within groups., I am especially invested in the opportunity of this position. My current position is an anti-inflammatory personal chef for a government worker, providing 3 meals a day, with new menus weekly, gastronomic meetings- to ensure my food was balanced and feeling good in the body and on its way out. I take pride in producing accurate work, punctuality, and maintaining data integrity.

What I Do Best Sales & Business Development I specialize in opening doors and creating opportunities. My strengths include cold outreach, objection handling, and building tailored conversations that lead to demos, quotes, and long-term relationships. I bridge the gap between marketing and sales by making sure prospects not only hear from us—but hear what matters to them. Marketing & Enablement I create tools that make teams more effective: multi-path call scripts, email sequences, and campaigns that improve conversion. I also support sales enablement with one-pagers, presentations, and messaging that position solutions as clear answers to customer pain points. Data & CRM Operations I clean, organize, and analyze CRM data to improve accuracy and decision-making. From building dashboards to deduplicating databases and optimizing lead flows, I ensure the pipeline is efficient, measurable, and scalable. I combine technical skills (SQL, Python, Tableau, HubSpot, Power BI) with business sense to find growth opportunities hidden in the data. Entrepreneurship & Strategy Beyond my current role, I’ve launched and grown small ventures, learning firsthand how to manage overhead, plan strategically, and adapt in fast-moving environments. I thrive at connecting ideas with execution, whether for a lean startup or a scaling business.

I have written many marketing articles for affiliate marketing, and product descriptions. One area I find interesting, and excel at, is presenting technological products and services. Arrangement and presentation of their specifications can go a long way to sell them to whomever they most appeal. I also have a good working knowledge of vitamins, supplements, and other nutritional products. I have a few health problems that I have had to try to tame with lifestyle changes to conceive and start a family -- four months along now! Now work from home, being a professional mom essentially. I will certainly be looking to market in that area as I will certainly be immersed in it for at least eighteen and a half years. This is a market that does nothing but grow... Medical and recreational cannabis has been an area of interest and action for me for roughly twenty years, both as a consumer and activist. I now use CBD medically. My husband also has several medical issues he relies on cannabis for, and is now opiate free! This is a passionate subject for me, as I have seen it turn lives around. I am soon embarking on an indoor mini-farming experience and I am already researching this as well as the other topics. Most of my former work experience has been in the medical field and I am very well-versed in personal care. There are no irritating, carcinogenic, or otherwise dangerous chemicals in my home -- AT ALL. This may be my biggest area of personal knowledge. Nobody has to poison themselves when they take care of themselves or clean their home anymore. There is nothing better than introducing a good friend to a product that makes them healthier or more beautiful, or even both. My emphasis on natural and healthy extends to cooking and eating. My husband is gluten intolerant, lactose intolerant, and has many digestive health problems we have to cook around. My Poly-Cystic Ovarian Syndrome also requires a close watch on my diet. We had to re-tune our metabolisms, brain chemicals, and hormones to conceive. There would be nothing more professionally satisfying than helping others in this area. So many of my generation have waited to start families, and done a lot of quick and fast damage with fast-food and other junk on the way. Being right in the middle of middle-aged, these are topics of great importance to me and my peers. Being a frugal example of my own demographic, I could add a lot to communicate why or how your goods and services are worth the money they cost. There is nothing more easy than selling to yourself! So, if you think I would be a prime candidate for a customer, I would certainly have the perfect prospective to speak to other middle-aged women. I am certainly the chief shopper in my own home as many of us are.
