If you’re looking for fluff, this page isn’t for you. But if you want raw, honest conversations about growth and proven tactics to level up as an SDR, keep reading! 

I’m here to share the full picture of how you heal and use your dark past to succeed in life and in sales. As a single dad and a top-performing SDR, I’ve learned that what happens outside of work shapes how we show up inside it. That’s why my posts are a mix of real-life resilience and actionable strategies to become a top 1% SDR.  

I don’t believe in sugarcoating success. I share my truth, the challenges, the comebacks, and the lessons that come with them-because I know someone out there needs to hear it. Alongside that, I offer tips and tricks for salespeople who want to push past the noise and stand out. From booking more meetings to building grit in the face of rejection, I’m here to help you crush your goals.  

For the single parents, the grinders in sales, and anyone who’s ready to rise above the noise—this page is for you.

Let’s grow together, one cringe worthy post at a time.
