I've built a unique set of skills that help me quickly assess markets, companies, and teams to provide individualized counsel on how to capture opportunity and drive growth. As a VP of sales, I led a team of over 100 individuals delivering $200M in revenue. As a CMO, I built marketing engines and global brands to grow companies by 10x to nearly $400M in revenue.
Now, I devote 100% of my time to helping CEOs of both public and private companies accelerate growth and scale their organizations – as a board member, advisor, and on-demand sounding board. I assess go-to-market talent, strategies and execution, and develop roadmaps to accelerate growth. I work with private equity and venture partners on due diligence and evaluations of new investments. I coach marketing, sales, and customer experience executives to deliver their personal best, scale their organizations, and achieve organizational alignment.
