About

TL;DR - I inherit creative skills to change people’s mind for the right reasons. Proven leader with 15+ years spanning VC, entrepreneurship, and innovation, connecting deep tech founders with global markets and corporate partners. Built and scaled ventures with two exits, advised 100+ founders, led portfolio strategy for 1,200 startups at MaRS, and supported $50M in venture funding and corporate partnerships globally. Now I help companies scale revenue through strategic enterprise sales, international expansion, and compelling thought leadership. My expertise in pre-sales pitches, GCC setup, and content strategy drives measurable growth for startups and enterprises. Here's how I can help: Enterprise Sales: Manufacture market demand and build sales funnels to engage high-value clients, driving 20%+ revenue growth for clients. Proposals and Pitches: Craft persuasive, client-centric pitches that have secured $5M+ in enterprise contracts across SaaS and tech services. International Expansion: Guide seamless market entry with localized strategies, enabling 10+ companies to scale in Asia, Europe, and beyond. Global Capability Centers (GCC): Design cost-efficient GCCs, reducing operational costs by 15% while boosting delivery capabilities. Content Strategy & Thought Leadership: Create high-impact content and campaigns that elevate brand authority, increasing visibility by 30%. I evaluate pitches, judge hackathons, actively mentor, and advise early-stage founders across Incubators & Accelerators in Canada. I also supported a community of emerging managers exploring VC careers. With a global perspective from working across North America, Asia, and the Mediterranean, I’ve built thriving tech ecosystems through community engagement, strategic partnerships, and high-impact conference production (e.g., NASSCOM Innotrek, Techne Summit in Egypt and Croatia, Tech in Asia, Singapore, Inc42 Junction, MaRS Moonshots Toronto). M&A Strategy | Venture Capital | Corporate Innovation | IP Commercialization | Enterprise Sales | Ecosystem Building | Board Advisory | Cleantech & AI | SaaS | Deep Tech I specialize in venture studios, corporate innovation, and commercialization. I thrive at the intersection of startups and capital building GTM systems, securing enterprise clients, and driving cross-border expansion. Open to global opportunities as an Operating Partner, Transformation Leader, or Chief of Staff to an ambitious founder. Let’s connect to discuss how I can accelerate your sales, expand your global footprint, or amplify your brand’s voice.
