About
With a Bachelor of Arts in Communications from American University, I have built a robust career in sales, marketing, and management within the restaurant and technology sectors. As General Manager at Upside, I led strategic initiatives to enhance restaurant operations. Prior to this, I was the Regional Sales Director at Compeat Restaurant Management Software, where I successfully expanded market presence. My experience as a Senior Marketing Consultant at Web.com involved enhancing online presence and customer engagement. I also served as a Sales Representative at OpenTable, focusing on client relationship development for reservation management solutions. Earlier in my career, I contributed to business development at Staples Business Advantage, supporting initiatives to expand the corporate client base. My diverse experience has equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of sales, marketing, and operational strategies in dynamic environments.
