About

I’m a B2B SaaS revenue leader with 14+ years of experience driving enterprise growth across global markets including EMEA and APAC. Over the years, I’ve built expertise across the full customer revenue lifecycle — from outbound acquisition and enterprise sales to renewals, expansion strategy, and long-term account growth. I’ve consistently operated in high-growth SaaS environments, helping organizations scale revenue through strategic relationship management, consultative selling, and customer-centric growth strategies. My experience spans enterprise SaaS, contract lifecycle management, CX platforms, and technology-driven business solutions, with a strong track record of exceeding targets, building trust-based partnerships, and driving sustainable revenue impact. I thrive at the intersection of: • Enterprise Sales • Strategic Account Management • Customer Expansion & Retention • Revenue Growth Strategy • GTM Collaboration • Consultative Solution Selling Since 2020, I’ve worked fully remotely, managing global stakeholders and cross-regional business relationships while adapting to fast-moving and evolving markets. What motivates me most is building meaningful customer relationships, solving business challenges through technology, and creating scalable growth engines that drive long-term value. Always open to conversations around SaaS growth, enterprise sales strategy, GTM execution, and scaling customer revenue functions.
