Company Info for polyai.com | IcebreakerMembers

I empower global sales teams to sell smarter, faster, and more confidently by designing enablement programs that drive actual performance. My focus is building skilled, value-driven sellers who deliver standout customer interactions. Every initiative I create is practical, results-driven, and aligned with business goals because great enablement isn’t just about training; it’s about impact.
With over a decade in sales enablement and even more in sales leadership across SaaS and B2B tech, I’m a problem solver and connector. I spot gaps, unite cross-functional teams, and craft solutions that move the needle. I bring clarity, alignment, and actionable strategies to every project, transforming vision into measurable success.
