About

I serve as Vice President of Sales Bay Area at Zendesk, where I lead multiple teams of high-performing enterprise software sales Leaders and Account Executives and spearhead strategic growth. Prior to Zendesk, I was Head of NOAM Sales at Celigo and I spent over a decade leading at Oracle NetSuite, where I drove the high‑tech vertical as VP. I built and oversaw a team of 40, making NetSuite the most widely adopted solution in the high-tech space. During Oracle’s acquisition of NetSuite, I retained 90% of my top account executives while simultaneously growing my organization’s revenue. At NetSuite, I also founded the Women who Mean Business initiative—quarterly networking events across the United States designed to elevate women’s professional trajectories across the ecosystem.   Earlier in my career, I held leadership roles at xIgnite and AnyBill, and spent thirteen years at SS&C Advent, joining as the 131st employee and helping scale the sales team from pre‑IPO through its public offering stage and beyond. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, I am the proud mother of three college‑age children. I also am an avid cook, try to be a gracious hostess, and consider myself a foodie. I bring energy and fun to everything I do. Buckle up.

Founder and President

Dec 2008Mar 2014 · 5 yrs 3 mos · San Francisco Bay Area

  • My observation and experience is that companies are focused on quick fix training instead of longterm sustainable tools and automated practices that have lasting results and generate short and longterm revenue.
  • Our sales consulting organization is comprised of experienced sales executives and professionals who have managed global sales teams for small to large sized firms and have helped them consistently exceeded revenue targets.
  • We analyze a business' current sales practice and infrastructure and concentrate our efforts on the areas that need improvement. We make strategic planning decisions and tactical recommendations that are easy to adopt, and will produce sustainable business results both short and longterm.
  • We produce tactical implementation plans to meet businesses strategic objectives and help them implement those plans.
