About Me
Throughout my professional journey, I've gained valuable exposure to direct sales within Small and Medium-sized Businesses (SMBs), Mid-Market, and Enterprise sectors.
I spearheaded the development of Yelp’s Channel Partner sales team, starting as the initial representative on the ground and steering its growth from $0 to $40 million in Annual Recurring Revenue. After Yelp, I co-founded Leap, a platform devoted to streamlining the process of interviewing and hiring exceptional sales talent for companies.
My involvement in fractional sales leadership stemmed from starting my own company and trading notes with other founders. I find immense satisfaction in supporting other startup founders spanning industries from software to fintech to robotics.
Whether it's evaluating sales talent, guiding founders in discovering their optimal sales strategies, or aiding frontline sales leaders in enhancing their skills, I thrive on operating fast and generating a positive impact for all my partners.
