My work sits at the intersection of revenue strategy and execution. I have led and rebuilt functions across growth, product marketing, sales enablement, forecasting, and GTM operations, helping companies improve the way sales, marketing, and customer-facing teams work together.
That means defining clearer revenue motions, tightening qualification, improving handoffs, strengthening operating cadence, and turning strategy into systems teams can actually use. In some companies, the need is better pipeline discipline. In others, it is stronger positioning, cleaner execution, or more reliable forecasting. The throughline is the same: build a revenue engine that scales.
I bring a practical operator’s mindset shaped by leadership roles inside growth-stage companies, enterprise environments, and founder-led businesses including time spent owning revenue outcomes directly.
What I Do
Design the operating model behind predictable growth across sales, marketing, RevOps, and customer success.
Improve how pipeline is built, qualified, inspected, and forecasted so leadership can trust the numbers and act earlier.
Equip teams to execute inside real deals through methodology adoption, value messaging, reinforcement, and frontline coaching.
Translate positioning, programs, and product strategy into field execution that improves readiness, consistency, and pipeline quality.
The Need Is Real
Revenue execution relies on individuals rather than systems.
Multiple companies, inconsistent execution, and limited board-level insight.
Sales, marketing, RevOps, and CS operate without a consistent execution model.
Decision-making relies on anecdotal reporting rather than operating dashboards.
Work With Me
Portfolio-level execution system design across multiple companies.
Designing and operationalizing scalable sales enablement systems.
3-12 month rotations inside companies installing operating cadence and governance.
Temporary leadership during scale, turnaround, or transition.
Been There Done That
I’ve spent 15+ years building and scaling revenue execution systems inside B2B SaaS, technology, and services organizations.
Highlights include:
Across these roles, my focus has been consistent:
Building enablement systems that turn fragmented revenue activity into disciplined revenue operations.
