I build things. Companies, products, podcasts, and strategies that move markets. Today, I'm co-founder and Chief Growth Officer at Brief, leading go-to-market for the first Executive Intelligence platform that gives leaders continuous context across their work. I’m also the co-host of the PROMPT This podcast, where we cut through AI hype and help business leaders focus on what actually drives results. Each conversation blends practical insights with real-world stories to give operators, marketers, and sales leaders a playbook for using AI with confidence. Earlier in my career, I co-founded SugarCRM and helped grow it from an open-source project into a global SaaS brand trusted by millions of users. Along the way, I’ve led teams across product, marketing, strategy, channel, and corporate development—building partnerships, negotiating acquisitions, and scaling internationally. At my core, I’m a builder and catalyst: I start things, I create momentum, and I challenge assumptions. If you’re building at the intersection of SaaS, AI, and growth…let’s connect.
Co-founded Brief and leading the go-to-market to solve the structural problem I spent twenty years building around: the absence of a system responsible for maintaining continuity of understanding across executive decisions, relationships, and time. Every tool captures activity. No tool maintains understanding. Brief is the Executive Intelligence platform built to close that gap.
