Colette Evangelista
(Sassy) Sales Ace
Standing at 5'11" Colette was built for collegiate volleyball. (True story: she played for four years at the University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill). With a sassy, sparkling personality and sense of humor that makes Will Ferrell's jokes sound like your dads, Colette is also well equipped for sales.
Graduating some years ago (exact number remains unknown) with her degree in elementary education/art history, Colette has spent more than a decade in sales and building community relationships. Though she's secretly always wanted to be a mascot for a sports team, Colette figured account management was a good fallback career. All of that time on the court taught Colette the skills it takes to squash the competition and root, root, root for the home team. (Note: she's also sold root canal equipment, for the record).
Having written for CAWLM for more than two years before joining the sales force at M3, it was like Colette was already part of the family (the twisted kind of family where no one is actually related but we love each other anyway). With talents ranging from knife throwing to champion chocolate chip cookie maker, we knew she'd fit right into our crew.
Outside of the office, Colette finds joy in entertaining, reading, watching reality television and, of course, laughing. She may have hung up the kneepads after college, but Colette is as competitive as they come - so watch out world, she's on a mission to score her clients the big W.
