As a sales leader with over 20 years of experience in the SaaS industry, I have built my career around driving transformative growth and empowering high-performing teams. My passion lies in blending data-driven strategies with a human-centric approach to create sales organizations that not only exceed revenue targets but also thrive as cohesive, inspired units.
From scaling sales teams at Trustwell—where I expanded the team from 6 to 32 and achieved 36% year-over-year growth in new logo revenue—to driving $4.6M in annual recurring revenue at SambaSafety, I’ve consistently delivered results that redefine expectations. I’ve led teams to close record-breaking deals, such as securing $15M total contract value at SambaSafety, while cultivating cultures of accountability and collaboration that sustain long-term success.
What sets me apart is my dedication to coaching and developing talent. I believe in nurturing sales professionals to reach—and surpass—their potential, fostering both individual and team growth. By instilling a coaching culture and emphasizing continuous learning, I’ve helped countless team members advance their careers while simultaneously driving organizational success.
I thrive at the intersection of strategy and execution, leveraging data and insights to navigate complex sales cycles and unlock opportunities. Whether it’s creating scalable sales processes, refining go-to-market strategies, or mentoring future leaders, my commitment remains the same: to build teams and strategies that deliver exceptional value to customers and stakeholders alike.
I am fortunate to work with some of the brightest minds in the industry, and I approach every day as an opportunity to learn, grow, and contribute to the success of those around me.
