My professional career has spanned non-profit donor development, sales, business development and client management in a variety of industries including 501c3 organizations, internet and technology start-ups, research and professional services and consulting organizations as well as law firms. I enjoy developing relationships and expanding needed business services to an organization's client base. My training is in strategic planning and implementation of business, marketing and sales plans both for product and service lines as well as integration of services into new regional or international markets. I also enjoy collaborating and coaching colleagues in relational sales methodology. Because of my international experience living and working abroad and my interest in convergence of new technologies and markets, there are numerous industries that I find appealing; energy and clean technologies, microfinance, online social networking, entertainment, and corporate philanthropy. I believe my organizational strengths and big-picture thinking align me well with many creative and growing companies.
