In My Own Words

I’m a driven and adaptable sales professional with a strong foundation in both entrepreneurship and sales. I started NeverBoard Wake, a watersports experience and a lifestyle brand that grew into a successful business through community-driven marketing, consistent execution, and a focus on customer experience.

More recently, I excelled at Aptive Environmental, where I built confidence and resilience in a high-volume direct sales environment. That experience strengthened my ability to build trust quickly, handle objections, and stay focused under pressure.

At my core, I value strong relationships and meaningful work. I’m motivated by growth—both personal and professional—and I’m always looking for ways to bring value to the people and teams I work with.
