As a Strategic Account Director at Decagon, I leverage my expertise in these areas to help companies deploy customer-facing AI Agents across chat, email and voice. Before joining Decagon, I was the Head of GTM at ai (now Agentforce), where I led all enterprise sales functions through the final stages of acquisition to Salesforce. As a player/coach who has worn many hats in GTM, I am comfortable leading all aspects of sales. I have a proven track record of delivering exceptional results, building strong relationships, and providing strategic guidance to customers across various industries.
