I am a Strategic Customer Success leader driving retention and growth for global SaaS portfolios.
What I'm looking for
I am a Strategic Customer Success leader with 9+ years driving retention and growth across global SaaS portfolios exceeding $8M ARR. I partner with executives to align product value to measurable customer outcomes.
At Loomly I influenced roadmap and go-to-market decisions that preserved over $150K in at-risk revenue, reduced churn by 19% (preserving ~$200K ARR), and drove a 14% increase in trial-to-paid conversions. I led onboarding initiatives that accelerated time-to-value by 20% and coached a team of three to support $90K in upsell revenue.
I am an effective cross-functional partner to Product, Engineering, Support, and Marketing, converting customer insights into revenue-impacting initiatives. Conversational in Spanish and Portuguese, I bring international experience across the Americas, EMEA, and APAC.
