What I do

Golf Sales Lead

As a seasoned sales professional with three years of experience at Dick's Sporting Goods in Liberty, MO, I have honed my skills in building strong relationships with customers and driving exceptional sales performance. In my role as a Golf Sales Lead and Certified Master Club Fitter, I specialize in understanding the unique needs of golfers and providing tailored solutions that enhance their game and satisfaction.
Starting as a base-level associate, I quickly advanced to the role of Golf Sales Lead, where I transformed our department from one of the lowest performing in the district to consistently ranking among the top. My department's sales performance now competes with and often exceeds those of much larger departments. This success is a testament to my strategic approach, dedication to customer service, and deep knowledge of the golf industry.

Who I am

Personal Life/Intrests

I am a proud graduate of Park University with a degree in Computer Science. While my academic journey provided me with a strong technical foundation, I discovered that my true passion lies in sales. This career path aligns with my interests and allows me to leverage my competitive spirit and hardworking nature.
Outside of work and studies, you will find me on the golf course, playing or practicing with a scratch handicap. Golf has instilled in me discipline, focus, and perseverance—qualities I bring to my sales career. At Dick's Sporting Goods, I advanced from a base-level associate to Golf Sales Lead and Certified Master Club Fitter, transforming my department into one of the top performers in our district.
My sales journey started with a love for golf and a desire to help others enhance their game. This passion, combined with my technical background, allows me to provide unique insights and solutions to clients. Before studying computer science, I taught myself basic coding and how to build websites (such as this one), demonstrating my self-starting attitude and ability to tackle challenges.
I am eager to continue my career in sales, where I can combine my technical knowledge, competitive nature, and passion for helping others to drive success.
