More

My work sits at the intersection of services, platforms, and partnerships, helping enterprises turn complex technology investments into real business outcomes. I specialize in originating, shaping, and closing complex services engagements through consultative selling, trusted-advisor relationships, and thought leadership. I focus on accelerating time to value and reducing risk in large-scale enterprise transformations, particularly where multiple stakeholders, partners, and delivery teams are involved. I’ve led both direct and partner-led pursuits to win high-value net-new logos and grow strategic accounts through land-and-expand motions. Much of my experience has been within global partner ecosystems, structuring and closing commercial deals alongside organizations such as Intel, Oracle Cloud, and Amazon Web Services, aligning technical delivery with clear business and financial outcomes. I’m known for operational rigor and I’m comfortable managing complex, multi-stakeholder enterprise sales cycles. I’m highly proficient in building, inspecting, and progressing pipelines. I’m self-motivated, results-driven, and comfortable operating independently or as part of cross-functional teams in fast-paced, global environments. Focus Areas • Enterprise Services Sales • Ecosystem partnerships and collaborative & consultative solution selling • GTM strategy, narratives, and partner enablement. • Customer storytelling, executive interviews, and thought leadership. • AI and cloud to edge technologies. • Career coaching and leadership development.
