Though Mariae is passionate about being a Hospital Pharmacist as her first job after getting licensed, she felt called to the corporate world of the pharmaceutical industry. Mariae achieved her first sales success at 21 as a pharmaceutical sales representative in the Philippines, reaching 122% of her sales target in just 9 months and ranking in the Top 4 nationwide. She consistently met her semestral target for 2 years before moving to Singapore. While working in the pharmaceutical sector, Mariae leveraged not only her pharmacy knowledge but also her sales, negotiation, and interpersonal skills to get her brands listed on the hospital’s formulary in less than a year (some applications take up to 2 years or more). Mariae consistently used these skills navigating from pharmaceutical sales to academia and consulting. When she took a leap into self-employment, she founded Proxymm Science in Singapore, collaborated with global partners, and kickstarted their medical education tourism portfolio. Since its first year of operation, Proxymm Science consistently stayed profitable, organically growing, without outside funding. She led her team in organizing over 450 continuing medical and professional education conferences globally, collaborating with research and learning institutes, clinicians, Subject Matter Experts, real-world practitioners in the industry, and training and research hospitals in North America, Europe, MENA and the Asia-Pacific. After 10 years, she is spearheading her team making experiential learning in healthcare mainstream and has launched Proxymm Science in Switzerland. While Mariae enjoys the thrill of scaling and growing her team, she is passionate about continuous learning and sharing her industry experience and real-world sales skills with those who need them. Mariae believes that anyone can sell, with the right attitude, tools, and mindset.
