In my own words

Ross

For over 5 years i have been a Regional Sales manager or Rep for major Specialty Vehicle Manufacturers.

I started this journey out with one single mobility vehicle in a undeveloped territory and grew that territory/company to be acquired by a fortune 500 company. I have always been a remote Rep and love to build relationship with clients/help build business. I have a strong resume with unique numbers to support my work ethic and selling ability. As a sales rep with a territory i love to travel and own all aspects of our partnerships, developing strong & trustworthy relationships with key accounts while improving profitability for both clients and our brand.
