B2B Marketing Leader driving growth for AI-driven automation platforms (RPA, Agentic AI, Multi-Agent Systems). I bridge cutting-edge tech and scalable revenue through integrated GTM strategies that turn complex innovations into adopted solutions.
My 15+ year journey began with ValueClick's IPO—witnessing how brilliant technology fails without unified go-to-market execution. Eight M&As later across PE, public, and startup landscapes, I've mastered revenue alignment while navigating constant change.
My Philosophy: Revenue is a Team Sport
Marketing and sales silos kill growth. I build revenue operating systems where teams work as one integrated machine—tracking accounts from first touch to expansion.
How I Deliver Impact:
● Demand Generation: Built multi-channel campaigns generating 200%+ qualified pipeline through content syndication, intent targeting, and conversion optimization. Expert in automation workflows that nurture complex B2B buying journeys.
● Revenue Architecture: Design unified measurement systems tracking entire customer lifecycle. Implement attribution modeling and CAC/LTV optimization aligning teams around shared revenue goals.
● Performance Marketing: Drive growth through data science—A/B testing funnels, optimizing marketing mix, and building lead scoring that predicts revenue outcomes.
● GTM Systems: Implement modern revenue infrastructure using HubSpot, Clay, 6sense, and conversation intelligence. Master embedded workflows from intent data to sales enablement automation.
● Category Positioning: Position AI platforms for market leadership by understanding complex B2B buying decisions. Create thought leadership driving brand awareness and conversions.
My Superpower: Turning multi-threaded enterprise sales into predictable revenue engines. Too many AI companies fail optimizing for MQLs in a world requiring account-based orchestration.
