About

I thrive at the intersection of strategy, execution, and leadership—building high-performing sales organizations that drive exponential growth. Over the past decade, I’ve led and scaled GTM teams at Indeed, Remote, and Rippling, transforming underperforming teams into revenue-generating powerhouses. At my core, I’m competitive, creative, and driven by excellence. I don’t just set ambitious goals—I build the strategy, rally the team, and make them happen. Whether it’s breaking into new markets, increasing outbound pipeline, or enhancing brand awareness, I believe in combining data-driven decision-making with a deep understanding of people and culture to deliver results. My expertise lies in building from the ground up—structuring sales teams, designing scalable processes, and creating a culture of accountability and high performance. Currently, I lead the GTM organization at Rippling, where I’ve built a team of AEs and SDRs focused on scaling outbound efforts, driving collaboration, and ensuring every seller has the tools and mindset to succeed. I’m passionate about scaling revenue, developing world-class sales teams, and turning vision into execution. If you’re interested in discussing GTM strategy, outbound growth, or leadership in sales, let’s connect.
