What is your day-to-day in your role?
Finding new sales leads for me and my team, meeting and exceeding sales quotas, educating and planning presentations, researching and communicating a consumers needs and working with other departments to drive sales efforts.
What is your favourite part of your role?
I’ll be the first to admin that I dont always appreciate the unexpected, but over the years, I’ve learned to embrace and expect it. When the unexpected becomes the expected, it is amazing how that can change a person’s outlook on life. I’ve learned to roll with things and understand what I can impact and what I cannot.
I am thankful that sales is not for the timid or the weak. The issues I’ve had to deal with over the years, and what I’ve learned from each one has without a doubt made me a better person. I have no doubt that my project management and process development skills are much better today than they were years ago. The pressure of sales has helped me refine those skills.

My father
