Summary

I am a dedicated and adaptable professional with a background in consultative sales, account management, and client-facing roles, underpinned by a degree in Speech and Language Therapy. Known for my ability to quickly learn, tackle challenges head-on, and deliver results, I thrive in environments where both analytical thinking and empathy are required. I come from a big family of girls, so I’ve mastered the art of resilience, negotiation, and keeping a sense of humor under pressure. Currently training for my first marathon, I bring the same determination and discipline to my professional life—whether it’s managing complex client accounts, streamlining workflows, or collaborating across teams to achieve ambitious goals. I’m a hard worker who isn’t afraid to get stuck in, solve problems creatively, and make every project my own.
