About

Started my career in sales, and I'm ending my career in marketing! Became CEO of two companies by 35. Now I lead the GTM marketing team at Nextiva, where we help 1000s of companies grow through more innovative ways to communicate using an all-in-one platform! Before Nextiva, I started and ran the US division of a global marketing agency and a global media company for over 10 years. We partnered with top brands like PayPal, IBM, Samsung, and Leadpoint. We also worked with some of the fastest-growing SaaS companies to help them rethink demand gen. Our specialty was building and executing high-converting webinars and virtual events from end to end. These became a top pipeline driver for over 25 companies, including LeadIQ, Xvoyant, Sales Hacker, RingLead, LeadSift, Chorus, Gong, and ZoomInfo. Along the way, I’ve collaborated with leading voices in sales and marketing, including Tony Robbins and Hayley Hobson. My work has been featured in Time, Harvard Business Review, The New York Times, LinkedIn, Wharton, Entrepreneur, and more.

Act-on software, inc.

Regional Sales Manager

Sep 2013Jan 2016 · 2 yrs 4 mos · Scottsdale, Arizona

  • Act-On was created to empower businesses to effectively market online at a fraction of the effort and cost incurred by more complicated systems. Act-On introduced a solution that was far more powerful yet easy enough and intuitive enough that a marketer could use it without help from the IT department.
  • Act-On Software is the world's fastest growing marketing automation company; its cloud-based marketing automation platform is the foundation of successful marketing campaigns everywhere – from small, simple and direct, to complex globally implemented programs. Act-On's technology features an Instant-On™ database for accelerated campaign implementation; an easy, highly intuitive user interface; and a comprehensive, feature-rich solution set. This includes a best-in-class email engine with one-click integration to leading web conferencing and CRM solutions; tools for website visitor tracking, lead scoring, lead nurturing and social media prospecting; design tools for web forms, landing pages and emails; and more.
  • Our customers tell us that Act-On enables them to keep their focus on their campaign objectives rather than on the underlying technology. Act-On's integrated marketing platform can be implemented in a matter of hours rather than days and weeks. Contrary to general industry practices, all contracts regardless of size are month-to-month, with prices starting at $500.
  • Test-drive Act-On yourself and see why well-established companies like Motorola and Progressive Casualty Insurance Company, and rising stars like On24, count themselves among our 1500+ happy customers.
  • Founded in 2008, Act-On is headquartered in Beaverton, Oregon, with offices in Roseville and San Mateo, California, and Bangalore, India. It is backed by venture capital firms Norwest Venture Partners, Trinity Ventures, U.S. Venture Partners and Voyager Capital. In addition, the company has received an investment from Stanford University.
