I'm a sales leader with 10+ years driving software renewals, business development, and GTM acceleration across ASEAN, Japan, Korea, and Greater China. I have consistently outperformed targets (including 110%+ YoY quarterly attainment) and earned Global Top Seller recognition by expanding enterprise accounts, growing net revenue retention, and protecting recurring revenue under competitive pressure. Most recently at Cisco, I transformed a 28-member regional sales team from 72% to 108% attainment in six months, halved new-hire ramp time, and drove 1.8x YoY partner-sourced revenue growth through data-driven enablement programs and standardized KPIs. I thrive on building scalable processes, cross-functional collaboration, and delivering measurable value for customers and teams across borders.
