• Proven track record of building and maintaining relationships within state agencies and/or licensing boards, with an ability to build rapport at both the operational and leadership levels.

• Project management mindset that can build pipelines, nurture and close complex deals, and coordinate complex RFPs and contract renewals, ensuring all technical and compliance requirements are met.

• Patient persistence: Comfortable navigating the long, often non-linear decision cycles typical of government procurement.
