About

I'm a global marketing executive who builds revenue engines for enterprise software. Twenty plus years across Oracle, Red Hat, Toshiba, and Highspot, leading field marketing, demand generation, partner marketing, ABM, and executive engagement at scale. I lead with candor, standards, and loyalty. I coach hard, build trust fast, and create teams that stay accountable without losing their humanity. I think product-first because that's the root of how I execute marketing. The work I care about is closing the gap between platform capability and pipeline reality, region by region, segment by segment, customer by customer. EXECUTIVE SNAPSHOT Global scale: Leadership across NA, EMEA, APAC/ANZ, LATAM, and Canada. Internal team span typically 10 to 40+ marketers across field, events, partner/channel, ABM, demand gen, and rev ops. Commercial impact: $781M+ influenced pipeline, $127M sourced revenue, 30% pipeline growth, 25% YoY pipeline growth, 15% win-rate lift, 20% sales-cycle reduction, and 42% partner ROI increase across enterprise GTM and field marketing leadership roles. Operating scope: Multi-million-dollar global budgets, executive engagement portfolios, partner ecosystem motions, KPI dashboards, quarterly business reviews, and forecast cadences tied to pipeline, bookings, ACV progression, and quota coverage. Systems and transformation: Salesforce, Marketo, HubSpot, Tableau, and CVENT. Attribution, routing, post-engagement conversion, MDF governance, and GTM transformation.
