What I'm looking for

I'm seeking remote and global advisory engagements where I can improve Revenue Operations, architect MarTech ecosystems, connect commercial and engineering teams, and drive technical efficiency for SaaS growth.

Global Digital Director and RevOps/MarTech Architect with 15+ years of experience bridging full-stack software development with commercial GTM strategy across LegalTech SaaS, digital agencies, e-commerce, and enterprise telematics.

At Dye & Durham, I architected a global HubSpot Enterprise to Salesforce integration for a $500M+ pipeline across 3 continents, establishing a single source of truth and 100% lead-to-revenue attribution. I engineered the "Campaign-in-a-Box" framework, cutting regional deployment times by 70% (from 2 weeks to 24 hours), and built Power Automate workflows that saved 15+ hours/week per regional team.

At Succeed Group, I expanded digital delivery capacity by 25% via Zapier and Make middleware automations, and restructured client reporting around CAC/LTV modeling for a 200+ account portfolio. My technical stack spans HubSpot Enterprise, Salesforce, Power Automate, BigQuery, SQL, Looker Studio, GA4, PHP, and MySQL.

I also serve as a Part-Time Lecturer teaching Advanced Digital Marketing, Data Analytics, and AI Integration. I am highly experienced in managing cross-functional operations and distributed teams across North America, Europe, and APAC.
