He never waivers under pressure and consistently demonstrates resilience and adaptability.

Steve is a world-class Account Director. He is methodical, clear, concise and delivers tangible results for his clients. Clients trust him in ways that are uncommon with sales professionals as there is typically an awkward, unspoken truth, that this person wants to sell me something! With Steve, that doesn't appear to be there. He listens to clients challenges, proposes realistic solutions, and goes above and beyond to ensure clients are delighted with the solution the buy. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Steve in a business development or leadership role.

I carried quota responsibility each year, which I consistently met and exceeded. Leveraging the full suite of talent tools LinkedIn had to offer, I helped clients understand the support that LinkedIn could provide when it came to; workforce planning, attraction, recruitment, referrals, employee advocacy and L&D. My work helped my customers make significant, data-driven human capital decisions. It was an exciting time to be part of a team and company that had such a clear and valuable vision. The experiences I had during a critical stage of LinkedIn's growth were invaluable.
