S. Leyah Shephard

My unconventional background isn't a linear path; it's a blueprint for a formidable sales engine. Formally trained in cybersecurity, I've strategically developed my skills to drive sales, targeting the intersection where technical expertise meets revenue growth. I'm open to any sales role, but only those with truly unlimited growth potential—my ambition operates on a large scale. 

My path through luxury fashion, international research, and high-stakes animal care wasn't a detour; it was a masterclass in decoding complex needs and driving value for diverse clients.  To me, it's a masterclass in human psychology, crisis management, cross-cultural communication, and translating extreme complexity into clear value for a diverse clientele. I've navigated the high-stakes anxiety of a pet owner and the exacting demands of a client buying a $40,000 suit. This diversity is the reason my skill set is more nuanced, resilient, and deeply human than any cookie-cutter candidate. Stepping away from a direct sales title wasn't an exit; it was a deliberate campaign of skill acquisition and development.

My background is my tactical advantage and a strategic asset. Sales is my natural arena—I thrive on the strategic hunt and the win. Sales is where I thrive—the negotiation is my intellect applied, the close is my logic validated. I've been assembling the arsenal. Now, I'm seeking the battlefield. You're not getting a candidate who needs to learn persuasion—here to execute it strategically.
