Selling and Shipping
Austin, Texas — Open to Relocation
About
High-ticket consultative seller with 5+ years closing financial transactions in B2C phone sales. I earned roughly six times my base in variable comp, against a California minimum-wage base — winning on expertise, rapport, and discovery rather than price.
I’m pivoting to tech sales to apply that outbound discipline against larger ACVs and longer cycles. I also build on the side: AI-assisted projects, fluent at the workflow level. A seller who ships.
