172: Another Teacher Goes into B2B Sales, Meredith Chandler, Meredith Chandler Consulting
Description
When Meredith graduated from college, she taught English as a second language in Spain. She had graduated in 2011 and from Spain saw and heard that her friends back in the San Francisco Bay / Silicon Valley area were all getting tech jobs. Friends encourged her to hurry back and get on with a big tech company.
Using her background as an NCAA varsity field hockey athlete, she walked into a sales role at Yelp - a super fast growing company at the time.

Listern to her journey and currently Meredith is at pclub.io working to grow sales there, and also at Meredith Chandler Consulting
