What I'm looking for

I seek a senior sales and marketing leadership role where I can drive measurable revenue growth, commercialize products, mentor teams, and apply data-driven marketing strategies in startups or established firms.

I am a sales and marketing executive and consultant with decades of experience generating growth across consumer and industrial markets. I have generated more than $300 million for startups and other firms and have led marketing efforts spanning market research, strategic planning, promotion, social media and direct marketing.

I have a track record of commercializing engineering products and securing funding — from helping a nanotechnology startup acquire $1 million in angel funding to leading a photonics company from $4.5 million to $9 million in annual sales in 18 months. I was part of a team that brought food security solutions to The Bahamas and I have provided marketing input directly to the Prime Minister of the Bahamas. I also helped a company sell to a NASDAQ-listed firm largely based on my marketing plan.

I mentor startups and incubators nationwide, deliver research-driven email campaigns with very high close rates (often >90%), and have edited and promoted four Kindle titles that reached #1 worldwide. I hold an MBA in Marketing and advanced degrees and coursework in journalism/media research, electrical engineering, and mathematics, which inform my data-driven, results-focused approach.
