Senior Customer Success Manager | GTM & SaaS Growth | Adoption · Retention · Program Building
What I'm looking for
CS is a GTM function. I’ve spent 8+ years proving it by building adoption programs, retention frameworks, and lifecycle systems that drive NRR and influence product roadmaps. Over that time I’ve owned the full post-sale lifecycle across enterprise SaaS and fintech: accelerating adoption, protecting retention, and unlocking expansion. I’ve scaled product adoption by 25%+, reduced time-to-value by 30%, and built metrics frameworks from scratch that gave CS, Product, and Engineering a shared language for the first time.
What I bring to a team is the ability to operate as both a strategic partner to executive stakeholders and a hands-on builder who creates structure where there isn’t any. I’ve led cross-functional programs spanning CS, Product, and Engineering, defining OKRs, aligning roadmap priorities with customer outcomes, and turning usage data into decisions that shape product evolution. I’m equally comfortable owning a customer portfolio and owning a program.
Whether the role is Senior CSM, Growth, or something that sits across both, I show up as someone who builds things that last. My career spans Silicon Valley, London, and Chicago, which shapes how I think about global customers, diverse markets, and scaling CS programs without losing the quality that enterprise relationships require
