  Professional Sabbatical

  To attend to a family need, I took a hiatus from my career. I have successfully led field sales and customer teams. I have also excelled across national chain store level execution. In my last leadership role 36% of my team was promoted, indicating my ability to deliver results and build capabilities. During my hiatus, I invested in myself and credentials needed to support post career interests by earning a law degree. This kept me professionally engaged and allowed me to hone skills around critical thinking, contracts, and negotiation. Further, I was active with various professional and civic boards, and provided sales and business development consultancy services. Show less
