About Vendor Connect

Hi, I’m Zoe Graves, Vendor Connect's Director of Business Operations & Talent! I live in St. Augustine, Florida with my husband, Brad, our dog Leila, and our two cats, Hazel and Olive. We love exploring beaches and Florida springs, spending time with loved ones, and training for marathons—we just ran our second together and I'm gearing up to run my third later this year!   At work, I'm passionate about connecting top talent with opportunities in medical sales. As the Director of Business Operations & Talent at Vendor Connect, I specialize in strategic recruiting, helping candidates navigate their career paths with precision and purpose. Breaking into medical sales can be challenging, but with the right strategy and authentic self-representation, I help professionals find not just any job—but the right one. My goal is to empower candidates with tailored guidance, ensuring they step into roles that align with their skills, ambitions, and long-term growth. When it comes to my clients, I take the time to understand their business objectives and hiring goals—ensuring we create a targeted recruitment strategy that identifies top talent not just for today, but for the future. By building a strong hiring bench, we help companies stay ahead in securing high-impact sales professionals.  

Hi, I’m Mariana McGehee, Recruiter Lead at Vendor Connect. I live in Orlando, Florida, with my husband, Tony, our daughter Sophia, and our dog Max. I love traveling, trying new restaurants (I’m a total foodie), baking, and spending as much time outdoors as possible—whether it’s exploring parks, taking walks with my family, or just enjoying the sunshine. Over the years, I’ve built a strong background in recruiting, which allows me to connect high-potential talent with the right medical sales opportunities. In my role as Recruiter Lead, I focus on creating strategies that help candidates stand out while also partnering with clients to build strong, future-ready teams.

I take the time to really understand each candidate’s goals and ensure the opportunities we present align with their vision for the future. Seeing someone land their dream role and knowing it’s the beginning of an exciting new chapter is what inspires me every day.
