As a dynamic product marketer, I embrace change and am passionate about the potential of technology to shape the present and future. I am known for my ability to quickly absorb and synthesize numerous facts and trends that help inform the C-Suite’s perspective. The ability to swiftly evaluate emerging trends enables me to identify market opportunities, capture momentum, reduce risk, and devise go-to-market plans that drive successful outcomes.
My product marketing experience ranges from startups to large enterprises where I help companies transition to a cloud-first world while addressing their network and security requirements. I have built and led teams, and am equally adept at setting big picture strategy as I am comfortable with hands-on, tactical execution.
An active and continuous learner, I am uniquely positioned to help companies navigate cloud architectures and align their marketing strategies to accelerate growth.
