About

Senior marketing leader for demand generation, performance, and integrated marketing. With 15+ years of experience across multiple areas of marketing, I have developed a passion for demand generation and marketing campaigns. My role is to make the marketing plan real, taking the messaging and creative outside the walls of a company to see how it performs in the market. Once programs are in market, I focus on how to make them scale. Creativity and operations are two sides of the same coin, it is important to experiment with new things but with an eye towards repeatable success. Demand gen is the discipline that acts as the hub for other marketing functions to keep all work aligned and results oriented. Data is the guide to areas that require deeper, human understanding. Being data-driven means identifying the right KPIs, having the right measurements in place, and using analytics to validate or disprove hypotheses that optimize marketing programs to show measurable improvement in outcomes. Areas of expertise: Go-to-Market Strategy Global Marketing Strategy Demand Generation Generative AI Paid Media Marketing Automation Agency/Vendor Management Digital Marketing KPIs, Analytics & Reporting Content Strategy Customer Marketing SaaS ABM
