Summary

Proven AE with a strong track record of success. I joined Robin AI as a BDR when they were a pre-seed organisation and left as an AE when they were approaching Series B, playing a pivotal role in the company’s commercial efforts. I take an avid interest in the SaaS technology space and leverage internal collaboration whilst nurturing relationships to achieve consistently high results. My rapid rise within the Robin AI Sales Team from being the Company’s first BDR at pre-seed, to AE post Series A, demonstrates my endeavour for success and ability to execute my role to the highest level.
