What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead enterprise SaaS partnerships, product operations, and enablement work that connects Sales, Product, Engineering, and customers to drive adoption, scalable delivery, and measurable outcomes.

At EdVisorly, I lead technical demos, deal strategy, RFP scoping, and escalation resolution for institutional partners. My work has supported $1.66M across 31 closed-won deals, and I built the company’s first formal sales training and enablement program.

I’ve helped take higher education products from early pilots to scale. At Niche, I was part of the founding Direct Admissions team that grew from a two-school pilot to more than 100 university partners, leading launches, implementation work, enrollment analysis, and customer success across a portfolio of roughly 120 accounts.

Earlier, I managed university partnerships at Othot and led undergraduate recruitment at Robert Morris University. I connect Sales, Product, Engineering, and institutional stakeholders to turn product capabilities into adoption, retention, and measurable partner outcomes.
