I've spent the last 11+ years in product marketing, leading go-to-market strategy, platform positioning, and field enablement for SaaS companies.
What I'm looking for
I've spent the last 11+ years in product marketing, leading go-to-market strategy, platform positioning, and field enablement for SaaS businesses ranging from startups to public companies. Along the way, I've helped organizations scale through periods of rapid growth, including two successful IPOs. What I enjoy most is bringing people together across Product, Sales, Marketing, and beyond. I love turning complex products into simple, compelling stories that help companies grow.
Most recently, I was the Director of Product Marketing at Superside, where I led the PMM team and helped creative teams use AI to do their best work. Before that, I was at StackAdapt and Klaviyo, where I owned GTM strategy and launches across AI, marketing automation, and other multi-product areas.
Outside of work, you can find me training longsword with my medieval combat team or rock climbing around Austin. I'm always happy to connect or chat about product marketing.
