What I'm looking for
With over a decade of experience in SaaS and a proven track record in Sales, I specialize in helping companies expand their market presence across Europe while delivering exceptional value to clients. My expertise includes driving customer adoption, fostering strong, long-term relationships, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure customer satisfaction and success across industries such as Management Consulting, System Integrators, Banking, and Pharma. At Cloud Academy (now QA), I played a pivotal role in supporting customers' digital transformation journeys toward cloud-based solutions, enabling growth and delivering measurable results.
Throughout my career, I’ve worked extensively with mid-sized and enterprise companies, consistently exceeding customer retention and expansion goals by identifying opportunities to optimize value delivery and ensuring a seamless customer experience. My deep understanding of local market dynamics and hands-on experience in international business environments uniquely position me to help U.S. companies strengthen their presence in Europe.
My approach to customer success is data-driven and relationship-focused, prioritizing proactive engagement with key stakeholders to align with their evolving business needs. I’m passionate about helping companies leverage cutting-edge technology to achieve their strategic objectives, particularly in fast-paced environments undergoing digital transformation. I also have a strong interest in mentoring and coaching, as well as building data-driven systems that optimize internal processes, driving higher engagement and retention.
