A Zero to One sales leader with multi-country experience of over 22 years in the tech industry covering Quantum, XaaS, and Services. I have thoroughly enjoyed setting up sales functions in startups, scaleups and pre+post-IPO companies.

More

I've setup global sales teams across APAC, EMEA and AMER selling into Enterprise, Mid-market & SMB segments. My professional career is backed by a strong academic foundation of an MBA & Computer Engineering from top universities. I love my work, and I love my family. I have a supportive partner and 2 lovely children. If I manage to find some spare time, I enjoy reading, playing squash and volunteering at the local chess club.
