@chrismartin
Experienced Chief of Staff with a focus on strategic growth.
What I'm looking for
With over 6 years of experience in cross-functional leadership and project management, I have honed my skills in venture-backed startups, private equity, and venture capital. As the Chief of Staff for a tech-enabled millwork and construction company, I have successfully built operational frameworks and investor strategies, contributing to a projected $6M ARR in 2025.
My journey includes founding a securities exchange for music royalties, where I pivoted to an AI B2B SaaS solution. I led a team through a successful funding round, secured key partnerships, and managed cross-functional teams to achieve significant sales milestones. My ability to communicate effectively with stakeholders has been pivotal in driving growth and operational success.
