GTM strategy and growth leader at Interactive AI, launched its hospitality vertical and built a $4M sales pipeline in six months.
What I'm looking for
At Interactive AI, I founded and scaled the hospitality vertical, bringing its production-ready agentic AI platform to hotel revenue and guest-experience use cases. I positioned AI RevOps—with rigorous evaluation and monitoring of LLM and human outputs—as a trust and quality differentiator, and built a $4M sales pipeline within six months.
Previously, I led sales automation at ExoClick, reducing manual processes by 50%+ and helping generate $1M+ in incremental monthly revenue through account expansion. I also advise early-growth technology companies through VPB Investments & Strategic Consulting, Inc on B2B revenue strategy, GTM design, and sales execution.
