I specialize in complex deal execution with deep experience in SaaS for financial services and advisory for marketing and technology leaders.

I help B2B technology companies turn customer relationships into long-term commercial growth. Across SaaS, enterprise technology and advisory services, I’ve closed transactions up to $2.5M, built $5M+ in pipeline launching a SaaS platform from zero, drove roughly 30% of new-client acquisition for a newly launched marketing advisory practice, and consistently ranked as a top 5% performer in my division.

My strongest work is where strategic account management, customer growth and partnerships converge — building executive relationships, navigating complex stakeholder environments, uncovering expansion opportunities and helping customers extract greater value from technology.

At Tier1 Financial Solutions (now SS&C Tier1), I joined on the ground floor and helped take Salesforce and SaaS to market targeting a skeptical and risk-averse financial services industry. Over the decade that followed, our team grew Tier1 into a premiere Salesforce partner serving some of the world's largest and most sophisticated financial institutions across investment banking, institutional markets, and wealth management.

At Info-Tech Research Group, I helped launch and grow a new marketing advisory practice providing hands-on support to global software vendors across product, go-to-market and technology strategy. My successes include winning a significant share of new clients competing directly with Gartner and Forrester, consistently ranking among the division’s top performers, and earning recognition for generating highest marketing content revenue.

What I enjoy most is developing an initial commercial relationship into something materially more valuable—understanding the customer’s business, earning credibility across stakeholder groups, identifying new areas of opportunity, and moving from vendor to trusted partner.

In my downtime, you'll find me cruising the slopes of the Laurentians on my snowboard or rocking out on the drums. As a passionate animal lover, I'm a vocal advocate against cetacean captivity and a strong supporter of preserving endangered species and biodiversity across our planet.

In terms of future opportunities, I’m particularly interested in Strategic Account Management, Enterprise Account Management, Account Director, Customer Success, Strategic Partnerships and selective Enterprise AE roles across B2B SaaS, FinTech, cybersecurity, enterprise platforms and data/analytics.
