Authentic sales strategy in service of others is key.

There are numerous sales strategies and processes available in which people are able to develop themselves. Mastery begins with inner work and requires fortitude and courage. I am passionate about the consultative sales process as well as with integrative bargaining, which transforms selling into serving others. I have successfully applied this method to numerous industries such as hospitality, education, real estate, and finance - with consumers as well as sales representatives that I have trained.

Brief History

Shortly after high school, I began my professional sales career in in Manhattan for El Al Israel Airlines. In 1996 the cold snow blew me closer to family in Florida where I then managed a successful start up travel center for Walmart corporation. Due to corporate decision to close that division, I moved to Orlando as a Sales Enablement Manager for DoubleTree Hotels. During that time I began personal development courses with Landmark Worldwide which led to my desire to contribute to people and make significant difference in other's lives which inspired my real estate career.

I spent 20 years in real estate focusing on innovative ways of prospecting, marketing and closing skills. I sold timeshares within a 90 minute sales presentation, custom homes ranging from $500k to over $3M, rentals, foreclosures and so much more. I managed over 600 properties as a community association manager and obtained my mortgage loan originator license and closed over $70M in mortgage loans. I am currently serving as a mortgage loan officer for PNC Bank.

In the midst of my career, I spent over 10 years being developed as a coach, facilitator and manager accountable for communication, leadership and sales training programs throughout the state of Florida. As a facilitator for the leadership and sales training program for Landmark Worldwide, my programs were the highest performing program within the organization to date at that time. Other than my family, this was the most rewarding experience of my life and a complete honor and privilege to be a part of.

I have been married for 10 years to my husband Andreas and we have one daughter Nikoletta, 6 years old. When I am not managing sales and performance efforts, I enjoy spending time with my family cooking, gardening, music and arts, reading, physical fitness and yoga.

Some Color, Fun, & Experiences

• At 17 years of age, my entrepreneurial spirit challenged me. I baked 100 Key Lime and Key Lime Cheese Pies to sell at a Flea Market and sold every single one of them!

• In Real Estate, waiting for my phone to ring was not an option. This one time, I approached a developer, educated myself on their product, used my skill to find value, created a presentation, marketed to a group out of state, flew there and returned with 99 deposits of $5,000, almost selling a majority of the project, shocking my broker.

• In my passion to help children, I found a charity that challenged me to run the NYC Marathon which required me to raise $2500. GAME ON! With no previous running experience, I trained straight for 10 months in order to prepare. Though I did not win the race, I did ultimately reach my goal and raised the $2500 for the children through community partnerships with local businesses and community leaders. It was truly a memorable and fulfilling experience.
  

• Created the world's first dating program on the commodore 64 before internet was available to use. To my amusement, I used to think I created the internet (LOL).
  

Some Color, Fun & Experiences

• Volunteering for Landmark Worldwide, formerly known as Landmark Education - Always looking to improve myself and looking for opportunities, while in Orlando I completed the Landmark Forum and their curriculum for living, communication and leadership training programs after moving back to Naples. I wanted to bring the work to the Naples community because we had to drive 2.5 hours each way to participate. In making the request, I was informed in order to do this, I had to fill a leadership development program in Naples. I marketed to the community of senior graduates as that was a prerequisite to participate in the leadership program. Once I presented them with a class of 10 people, they turned to me and said, since you were able to fill the class, you are ready to lead the program.

• That was the beginning of me volunteering which led to me going on staff and being accountable for the leadership training program throughout the state of Florida.
