Brings a metrics-driven operating approach (OKRs, balancing metrics/unit economics) and has advised other startups (e.g., sports betting) to refocus effort on the highest-value customer segments.”

Closed self-sourced, compliance-heavy deals worth millions and partnered closely with product, engineering, legal, and commercial leadership to win complex enterprise accounts while the product was still evolving.”

“Dynamics 365 Project Operations/Field Service implementer focused on operational execution—built foundational task tracking and expedited field-service scheduling with improved visibility, alerts, and billing/sales record traceability. Uses interviews plus pilot/testing to refine UI and business processes for adoption, and applies A/B testing techniques to both marketing emails and D365 form experiences while partnering with the D365 product team to address bugs and usability.”

Executive Enterprise Sales Leader specializing in AI and SaaS

Burlingame, CA13y exp

“Founding/early-stage AE with deep MarTech and GTM SaaS experience who repeatedly builds structure where little exists—defining ICPs, creating outbound motions, implementing CRM/process rigor, and partnering with founders on positioning. Has closed six-figure enterprise wins such as Accenture and Northwestern Mutual, including an outbound-sourced Accenture deal closed in under 10 weeks.”

“Early-stage/first sales hire profile with strong outbound motion and process-building experience. Self-sourced and closed a $2.8M Yahoo deal (8-month cycle) using a shared mutual plan to manage stakeholders and timelines, and has recent mid-market ACV wins selling Mapistry to environmental compliance managers by enabling champions to secure internal budget. Has also implemented MEDDICC and built foundational GTM assets (e.g., Quantcast’s first sales deck used in $2B+ of closed business).”

“Sales professional focused on staffing/talent operations and GTM enablement solutions, with a disciplined outbound motion (ICP, org mapping, multi-threading across calls/LinkedIn/email). Has examples of winning mid-market deals ($30K–$60K) and expanding an account to ~$52K ACV, plus building early-stage sales process rigor (MEDDICC, pipeline reviews) that produced predictable pipeline in ~90 days and shortened cycles by ~20%.”
