I wake up every morning with a focus on streamlining and optimizing cross-functional, marketing processes. I won't let challenges or obstacles get in the way of ensuring that my fellow marketers across Demand Generation, Product, Partner, Field, Content and Brand have the tools they need to succeed when it comes to being agile with a GTM strategy that drives pipeline.
Working across different project management softwares (both home grown and off-the-shelf), all with a variety of UI interfaces, throughout my career, has given me the skills and expertise needed to adapt to my surroundings and determine how best to storyboard and deliver process solutions to leadership regardless of system limitations.
I am passionate about helping high growth tech companies develop an organizational process where the strategists can focus on strategy and the execution teams can focus on implementing those strategies. The secret sauce is ensuring that everyone is bought in on the process and procedures that will be put in place. At the end of the day, driving pipeline is what matters, and if I can help with that by organization process improvements, then I will be dedicated to that and not rest until it is achieved.
I look forward to seeing where I can help your company.
