GTM & Marketing Leader (Atlassian, Slack, Zendesk)

About

Growth and marketing leader - partnering with investors, founders, and builders to ship products and accelerate growth across all stages. Ambidextrous across Product-led Growth (PLG) and Sales-led GTM motions - built and scaled a diverse array of high-performance organizations at category-defining SaaS companies like Atlassian, Slack, Narvar, and Zendesk. Began my career in product development, combining his background in engineering and design to ship large-scale cloud products at companies like PayPal and Sapient.
