About

Strategic and performance-driven commercial leader with a background in top-level sports, entrepreneurship, and eight years of experience scaling high-impact sales teams and businesses across startups and corporates. I thrive in fast-paced, high-growth environments, operating with intensity, clarity, and purpose. I started in early-stage startups as the first commercial hire - building GTM strategies, generating first revenue, and laying the commercial foundation from scratch. That experience taught me to move fast, stay accountable, and lead with ambition. Since then, I’ve led different sales segments and business units - driving growth across regions, launching new markets, and scaling what works in complex, high-pressure environments. At Uber, I lead the Global Strategic Accounts, New Business Team out of New York, driving enterprise growth across EMEA, LATAM, and APAC. Our team expands Uber’s footprint with complex global clients, building scalable sales motions and aligning regional execution with global strategy. I believe great leadership happens in the field, not from the sidelines. As a former field hockey forward, I bring that same mindset to business, applying positive pressure, staying close to customers, and winning together as a team. Outside of Uber, I co-founded My Own Filo, a FemTech company transforming women’s health through science, technology, and empathy. Together with my mom, we’ve raised $2.2M to build tools with leading medical specialists, creating a new category that empowers over 3,500 women today. And yes, I say “Happy Days” a lot - because when you’re doing meaningful work with great people, that’s exactly what it should feel like.
