Bio

I have over 30 years of experience as a Fortune 500 Global Sales Executive, and I'm passionate about the opportunities available for empowered women. My own experience as a successful entrepreneur taught me that dedication, passion, and grit are essential when it comes to making your dreams a reality. As a wife and mother, I understand first-hand the challenges of balancing family and a career – and the stress of trying to do it all. Now, I teach other women to do the same.. My clients and experiences include United Healthcare, Anthem, the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association (thirty-eight independent BCBS companies), Merck, Wyeth, Johnson & Johnson, Roche, Eli Lilly, T-Mobile, Pinterest, Justworks, Salesforce, and LinkedIn, with extensive experience in major global markets within diverse industries: Europe (in market), Latin America (in market), and Asia. I have been in Sales since before girl scout cookies were 50 cents a box. I want to see a million women of Color by 2030 sit at the table of their dreams; by table of their dreams, I mean the C-Suite, Sales leadership, the sales leaderboard, or the Entrepreneurs table. The problem is that many of these women lack access and financial fluency to get there. That’s why I coach and train Black and Brown women to be too good to be ignored. Maybe this is your story… -You have a high turnover rate and want to improve how effective your salespeople are -You’ve hired WOC salespeople before, but with lackluster results -You’ve invested in agencies and training programs before that seemed to make no real difference -You’re lagging behind on reaching your diversity goals because you think other things are more important -You’ve tried new ideas and frameworks, but each one left you in exactly the same place as where you started -You want to have more confident, empowered employees – but you’re unsure where to start or what to do I work with companies during their sales recruitment and retention process to help them reach their diversity goals while seeing shorter sales cycles, higher conversion rates, and increased customer satisfaction.
