About

I help organisations solve commercially important problems by building trust, uncovering business priorities and guiding complex buying decisions from first conversation through to close. Over the past 15+ years in sales I’ve built my career in full-cycle B2C and B2B across high-value, relationship-driven environments, owning the entire sales process from account research and outbound prospecting through discovery, stakeholder alignment, commercial negotiation and long-term customer relationships. The common thread throughout my career has been creating opportunities from scratch. That has developed a disciplined approach to pipeline generation, consultative selling and working with multiple stakeholders to reach commercially sound outcomes for both customers and the business. Career highlights include: • $1.2M AUD closed against a $500K quarterly target (240% attainment) • Company-record $507K AUD individual sales month • 51% average close rate across qualified executive-level opportunities • Top 5% internationally across 420 offices and 5000+ sales professionals • Awarded Best Rising Talent ANZ within first 12 months of new organisation and territory What motivates me most is working alongside high-performing teams to understand complex customer challenges, align technical and commercial stakeholders, and help organisations make confident decisions that deliver measurable business outcomes. I’m particularly interested in Commercial and Mid-Market Account Executive opportunities across SaaS, cloud, AI, data and enterprise software, where curiosity, disciplined execution and customer-first discovery are valued as highly as commercial results.
