Director Ir & Business Development

I am a dynamic professional with a proven track record in driving results and achieving success across various areas, including investor relations, business development, and sales. Throughout my career, I have demonstrated my expertise and delivered impactful outcomes:

At Arca, as the Director of Investor Relations & Business Development, I skillfully managed a portfolio of over 120 client relationships. Additionally, I played a pivotal role in raising $25 million across multiple fund products and actively contributed to the successful launch of new funds.

During my tenure at Block (Square, Inc.), I thrived in a Business Development role, surpassing expectations by achieving an impressive 240% over quota. Through my strategic approach, I generated a significant number of high-quality leads, effectively driving the top-of-funnel growth for the organization.

As an Account Executive at Square, Inc., I consistently exceeded sales targets by empowering businesses with innovative technology and cutting-edge payment solutions. By leveraging my strong interpersonal and negotiation skills, I facilitated the adoption of these solutions, enabling businesses to thrive in a rapidly evolving marketplace.

At Yelp, as a Mid-Market Account Executive, I played a crucial role in helping businesses unlock their full market potential. Through successful marketing campaigns and strategic guidance, I assisted businesses in optimizing their operations and achieving their goals.

Furthermore, I hold a double major in Finance and Real Estate from the University of San Diego, providing me with a solid foundation in these fields and enabling me to approach opportunities with a comprehensive understanding of both finance and technology.

As a skilled communicator and leader, I am deeply passionate about the intersections of finance and technology. Leveraging my exceptional track record, I am eager to make a valuable contribution to the growth and success of innovative organizations.
