Summary

A results-driven Appointment Setter with 5 years of remote sales experience and 10+ years in business development, I am dedicated to advancing my career in remote sales and the high-ticket industry. Working remotely since 2021, I continuously invest in education to refine my skills and deliver exceptional value to clients.

In May 2024, I completed a High Ticket Sales course with Limelight Media, led by Mike Barron, former marketing manager for Grant Cardone. I am currently furthering my expertise through a High Ticket Sales course with the Remote Sales Institute.
