I have been in B2B sales for almost 20 years, and I truly enjoy it. Something is fulfilling about understanding people's needs, building genuine relationships, and making things happen. Throughout my career, I have achieved impressive results—such as 300% quota attainment, securing multi-million dollar deals, and working with Fortune 500 companies. However, what keeps me motivated is the variety and the challenges that come with the role.
My background is diverse, and I mean that in a positive way. I was part of a founding startup team at Tapingo, which was eventually acquired by Grubhub. I was employee number 10 and the first hire in Customer Success. I played a crucial role in scaling the company from the ground up, achieving a 150% month-over-month increase in users and transforming university campus programs into thousands of daily orders. Additionally, I have experience in large enterprise environments, having worked at companies like Google, HP, and currently Onix, where I manage accounts for Fortune 500 companies across various industries.
I have sold augmented reality, Google Maps APIs, recruiting solutions, restaurant technology, office equipment, and more. Each experience taught me something different, and I genuinely enjoy exploring new industries and understanding what motivates customers.
Outside of work, I enjoy philanthropy, spending time with friends and family, and animal sitting (I love all animals!). I also engage in mentoring, attending live music events and festivals, appreciating art, practicing yoga and swimming (also a soccer goalie!), and cooking healthy meals. Being a Gold Award Girl Scout and Explorer Boy Scout, I have a deep love for nature and the outdoors.
I support Bay Area sports (and now the Chicago Bears, with my brother on Coach staff - Go! #CoachRiise) and enjoy traveling, especially to Oaxaca & Norway, where I have sacred family homes. Recently, I've been pushing myself creatively. I believe in the power of positive energy, staying curious, and saying yes to new experiences.
My strengths include building authentic relationships, strategic thinking, achieving goals, and approaching challenges with enthusiasm—whether it’s a complex sales cycle or something completely outside my expertise.
