Founder & Managing Partner
“As a senior marketer, I have been responsible for developing and implementing marketing and digital product strategies in highly competitive B2B technology environments.
I’ve taken on companies like Google and AWS through innovative positioning, customer-centric messaging and delivering campaigns with a test and learn mentality. At a strategic level, I’ve created marketing departments and teams from scratch, built out full go-to-market strategies and advised at a board level.
Alongside my work, I enjoy contributing to my industry and wider community. I am a regular speaker about marketing and technology at international conferences.
