About

I’m a proven leader with deep experience across presales, operations, and AI. I’ve built and scaled data-driven sales organizations, leading initiatives that span go-to-market strategy, AI adoption, internal productivity tools, and analytics platforms. I’ve worked across most of the business units at MDB, managing teams and driving execution across these initiatives end to end. I operate at both the strategic and execution levels, setting direction while also performing the work to deliver results. My current accomplishments at MongoDB include: * scaling out the presales org from 40 to 400 * building out the AI and search presales strategy * supporting all major key accounts * reducing friction across all systems and LOBs * delivering actionable insights and analytics * architecting and developing org-wide automation and tooling
