Bio

Over a thirty-year sales career in the technology industry, Sarah worked her way from a rookie to a director. Along the way, she developed a taste for bidding - it played to her strengths as a storyteller, an organizer and a timekeeper.

In 2012, Sarah decided to start giving back everything she'd learned to help others sell more - to commercial organizations and the public sector. She's been busy ever since and loving every minute.

Sarah's biggest love is words. Whenever she has a rare, spare minute, she devours hints and tips on style and grammar, structure and format. Over a decade ago, Lynne Truss's "Eats, shoots & leaves" reignited her indignation at sloppy writing. Sarah continuously strives to perfect her writing.

After doing her day job – fixing processes, managing bids, training, reviewing, writing and editing sales documents - she often presents for the APMP. She also writes articles for professional sales and bid publications to champion her trade.

 

APMP has provided an incredible platform for seasoned individuals from the Proposal and Bid Management profession and young professionals who want to start their careers in this field.
