Experience

  • CO-OWNER & CHIEF SALES OFFICER at Kodah Business Automation
    Jun 2026 - Present · 2 mos

    I'm one of four equity partners on the Kodah EXCO team and acting Chief Sales Officer of a Diamond ClickUp Partner ranked #1 in EMEA (2024 & 2025) and #2 in the world across the ClickUp Eco-System My mandate is simple: turn category-leading partner status into category-leading commercial growth. That means owning and supporting the global GTM team to build the sales engine, and putting Kodah's agentic AI execution systems in front of the people who feel the pain most - CFOs, CTOs, CIOs, and COOs scaling operations across EMEA, APAC, and the US. What makes this work isn't just the badge - it's the bench behind it our expectational team. Kodah's EXCO team have run shoulder to shoulder for the better part of 15 years across multiple businesses, and that kind of trust doesn't show up on a partner leader board. It shows up in how fast we ship, how cleanly we execute, and why our clients stay. Being a Diamond Partner is the proof point; being #1 in EMEA two years running is the standard. We don't manage workflows - we build systems that run the business. If you're scaling operations and want systems that execute rather than sit in a backlog, let's talk. 📩 [email protected]
