About

I once took a cancellation call and ended it with a doubled MRR. I've also closed a deal at $4,500 MRR on a product with a $750 ceiling, a 6x benchmark That's not luck, it's what happens when you understand the client's problem better than they've articulated it, and you move fast enough to do something about it. I lead strategic accounts at GoComet, a logistics SaaS platform, managing a $3M+ ARR portfolio across global enterprises in agri-commodities, manufacturing, and FMCG. Beyond account management, I sit at the intersection of client consulting and product building. I've co-created multiple products by translating enterprise problems into shipped solutions, which is what most people now call Forward Deployed Engineering. I'm actively building toward AI GTM Engineer and FDE roles in logistics and supply chain SaaS, combining 10+ years of enterprise relationship depth with applied AI. If you're scaling an enterprise SaaS or deploying AI inside complex supply chain environments, let's talk.
