About

I’m a marketing leader with a strong record of scaling B2B and B2C technology companies. I connect product strategy to market impact through customer insight, data, and clear storytelling. Key strengths include: Building and leading high-performing marketing teams Defining go-to-market strategies for SaaS, fintech, and marketplace platforms Developing pricing, packaging, and segmentation strategies that drive growth Aligning product, growth, and sales teams around customer needs and outcomes I’ve led marketing at Upwork, Square, Jobber, and Ibotta, helping drive adoption, engagement, and revenue growth across web and mobile platforms. I believe great marketing starts with empathy for the customer and that technology, including AI, works best when it amplifies human potential.
