I work with global B2B organizations to drive growth at moments of real inflection—when technology shifts, customer behavior changes, or business models are disrupted and leaders need to fundamentally rethink how they compete. My focus is turning disruption into a 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿, not simply managing through change.

At enterprise scale, growth rarely stalls because of a lack of activity. It stalls when what reaches the market is no longer 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗲𝘃𝗮𝗻𝘁, 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗱, 𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲. This is where I do my strongest work: clarifying what a company stands for, designing cohesive, audience-led experiences, and building the operating systems that allow both to scale with discipline.

I’ve led large, globally distributed teams and complex initiatives for 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲, 𝗔𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗰𝘁𝗲𝗿 & 𝗚𝗮𝗺𝗯𝗹𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝗧&𝗧, shaping market positioning and building enterprise marketing and growth systems across the full lifecycle—from strategy and storytelling to ecosystems, demand, and sales enablement.

I’ve led within large, matrixed organizations, aligning senior stakeholders behind bold strategies and a 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿, 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻, and building cultures that balance innovation with accountability. My approach is pragmatic and focused: simplify the work, govern complexity, and invest where it actually moves the business. I pair creative strategy with data and insight to make better decisions and better work.

Increasingly, my focus is on how 𝗔𝗜 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 are reshaping how relevance is created, experienced, and scaled, not as a side project, but as an operating advantage embedded into how teams work and how customers engage.
