About

I believe that a company’s scale is defined by the strength of its foundations. Over the past 19+ years, I’ve sat at the intersection of Presales, Customer Success, and GTM Strategy, building high-performing teams from the ground up. My approach is rooted in Servant Leadership and an Entrepreneurial Mindset. Whether it’s architecting a Center of Excellence (CoE) at Scale or building teams from ground up, I focus on creating systems where technical and customer success excellence meets business and customer growth. Core Expertise: - Building & Scaling Technical Teams & CoEs - Customer Success Lifecycle & Execution - GTM Strategy & Business Development - Strategic Budget Management, P&L Focus, Resource Planning
