Everything starts and ends with the customer. That principle has guided my career across management consulting, enterprise technology, and healthcare for two decades.

It shapes which problems I choose to solve, how I build GTM strategy, and how I lead teams to deliver customer outcomes that drive measurable business growth. I am a strategist who listens. An operator who rolls up her sleeves. A connector who brings the right people and resources together to get things done. Whether designing a go-to-market motion, building a business value framework, or advising CxO leadership on enterprise transformation, I start with the customer's strategy and work backward to the solution. Along the way, that approach has led to some defining moments: ~ Created a foundational enterprise value framework that drove $32M in landmark new business, reshaped GTM methodology across 500+ Strategic Client Directors, and impacted $250M+ in ARR ~ Delivered 108+ enterprise engagements contributing $191M+ in booked business across healthcare, financial services, and ~ Managed Finance Day 1 Readiness for a $26B tech company merger spanning 125k employees across 30+ ~ Raised the flag to stop launch of a $2B satellite, mobilizing 34 experts and saving the system from total loss. I bring deep experience in GTM strategy and design, customer success and transformation, business value services, strategic planning and operations, and CxO advisory. My industry depth is in healthcare (payer, provider, patient experience) and technology (Cloud, SaaS, HealthTech), and I have worked across financial services, aerospace, and retail. I hold a Harvard MBA and a Purdue PhD in Engineering with a healthcare focus. I am a McKinsey alum and former Oracle Senior Director. I currently advise organizations through Nextura Strategy and am the founder of Rebase Careers, a community initiative helping professionals impacted by workforce restructuring. I also write the Thursday Treatise, a weekly series on the future of GTM in an AI-first world. You can find it on my LinkedIn articles. I am actively pursuing senior leadership roles in GTM strategy, customer success, and enterprise transformation. I'm always open to conversations that start and end with the customer. com
