Summary

As a seasoned sales professional with 17 years’ experience spanning diverse industries, products, and services, I have consistently delivered exceptional customer service and sales performance across everything from industrial workshop fit outs, to business management software. A graduate from the University of Canterbury, I possess a versatile skill set that extends beyond sales, I am also a business owner and a certified personal trainer.


In December 2021, I launched SB Boxfit, a successful personal training and boxing business, after obtaining my PT certification through night school. Navigating the challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic, I demonstrated resilience, enabling business growth despite facing adversity. As a business owner in the fitness industry, I honed essential entrepreneurial skills and acquired valuable business acumen. I have a passion for hard work, be it in the office, the gym, or any other pursuit I undertake. I am driven by the desire to excel and make a positive impact wherever I go.


By combining my extensive sales expertise, entrepreneurial acumen, and personal training qualifications, I offer a unique blend of skills that sets me apart as a versatile professional capable of thriving in diverse environments.
