Founders spend more time firefighting than The instinct is often to hire more people or buy another In my experience, that's rarely the real The real problem is usually the system behind the For the past 10 years, I've worked across B2B technology sales, customer success, fintech, and revenue I've closed more than $3M in enterprise technology sales, managed a $10M customer portfolio, and helped organizations improve how they acquire, onboard, and retain Across every role, I kept seeing the same Teams weren't failing because they lacked They were being held back by fragmented processes, disconnected tools, and workflows that depended on individual heroics instead of well-designed One experience changed how I think about As a Customer Success Manager at Multigate, I redesigned the customer onboarding process from the ground up—transforming a manual workflow into a scalable operating system that improved onboarding speed, consistency, and customer That project taught me something I'll carry throughout my career:Growth is rarely limited by It's limited by Today, I help founders identify the constraints quietly limiting growth and design the revenue and business systems that remove them—using platforms like HubSpot, Clay, Apollo, Claude, and n8n to transform fragmented processes into intelligent operating My work combines:• Business Systems Strategy• Customer Success Management• Revenue Operations• AI & Workflow Automation• GTM ArchitectureThrough Beyond Strides, I help organizations build systems that scale—not just teams that work My belief is simple:Technology changes. AI evolves. Markets Well-designed systems That's why I'm less interested in helping companies adopt another and more interested in helping them build businesses that can keep growing long after the excitement around the latest technology If you're a founder wondering why growth has stalled—even though your team is working harder than ever—DM me.
