About

I’m a Product & GTM leader with 20+ years across technology and product leadership, including 18+ years building and scaling B2B SaaS products. My work centers on AI-powered platforms, customer-led growth, and translating strategy into execution that delivers measurable outcomes. I specialize in taking products from idea to impact—turning real customer pain points into scalable solutions, aligning product strategy with go-to-market execution, and working closely with sales, marketing, and engineering teams across geographies. I’m most effective in environments that require clarity amidst ambiguity and strong ownership from 0→1 through scale. Career highlights: • Scaled a B2B SaaS product from early traction to $940K ARR in under two years • Owned product strategy for a $150M+ revenue product line, balancing customer value, roadmap trade-offs, and execution velocity • Led GTM strategy and execution for new product launches, partnering hands-on with sales and customer-facing teams to drive adoption • Built, coached, and scaled product teams, improving execution speed and stakeholder alignment in complex, multi-market setups I bring a calm, execution-focused leadership style and enjoy operating at the intersection of AI, product thinking, and GTM rigor—where product decisions directly influence growth, revenue, and customer outcomes. I care less about shipping features and more about building products that are adopted, valued, and sustained. Currently focused on and open to senior leadership roles involving AI-driven SaaS products, Product Management, and end-to-end GTM ownership.
