About

At the core of my career is a passion for transforming SaaS businesses across industries like Cybersecurity, Digital Real Estate, and FinTech. As a Revenue Operations and GTM leader with 15+ years of experience, I specialize in aligning sales, marketing, and customer success to achieve measurable results. My recent tenure as Head of Revenue Operations at Growth Harmony saw achievements like a 66% reduction in redundant efforts and strategic implementations, including MEDDPICC, driving $2M in pipeline growth and 30% ARR increases. Beyond operations, I contribute to the RevOps community through master classes and publications with RevRoom, sharing actionable strategies for scaling revenue teams and optimizing GTM processes. Proficient in leveraging tools like Salesforce and HubSpot, I drive data-driven decisions that reduce churn, enhance EBITDA, and deliver predictable growth. My commitment to mentorship and innovation underscores every aspect of my work, helping businesses and professionals excel in an evolving SaaS landscape.
