He’s as comfortable:
going toe to toe with the CTO over product features and architecture… as he is…
creating compelling product positioning and metrics-based marketing campaigns…as he is…
walking into a greenfield enterprise account and walking out with a 6-figure sales contract.

He fully embraces the Lean Start Up philosophy (including Inside Sales/Sales Development methodologies) and believes that leaders have to lead from the front lines, with sleeves rolled up and hands dirty (he’s assembled his share of Ikea furniture), yet still create a culture of empowerment for each team member.
Proven results: He has launched multiple products, taking them from concept/blank page to multi-million dollar revenue streams.
