A Complete Look Into My Work Experience

Nevara is an AI sales platform built to help account executives prepare for calls, sell during conversations, and handle follow-up work afterward.

I support Nevara's go-to-market efforts through prospecting, account research, cold email, and cold calling. My work involves identifying potential customers, finding the right people inside target companies, researching accounts, and reaching out directly.

Working with Nevara has given me hands-on experience with outbound sales and an inside look at how an early-stage startup approaches customer acquisition, positioning, and growth.

I started reselling Pokémon cards after stepping away from Kaeda. What started as buying and selling individual cards turned into a business that has generated more than $18,000 in revenue.

I've sold at more than five trade shows and used Facebook Marketplace to reach buyers, generating more than 5,000 interactions. I've also built relationships with repeat customers, with three larger buyers accounting for roughly $3,000 in revenue.

Running the business has taught me a lot about pricing, negotiation, inventory, customer service, and the value of building relationships with people who come back to buy again.

Kaeda was a mechanical keyboard building and consulting business I started when I was 13. I helped customers choose and customize keyboards around their preferences, ergonomics, and workflow.

The business generated more than $4,000 in revenue within its first eight months and served more than 15 customers. I also designed and built Kaeda's website, which received more than 200 visits in its first month.

Kaeda later received a $1,000 grant through the inaugural Forge Fellowship, founded by Anand Sanwal, founder of CB Insights.

Kaeda was my first real experience turning something I was interested in into a business with actual customers, revenue, and a product people were willing to pay for.
