Revenue @ Sendspark - On a campaign to get Americans to say football instead of soccer!

This is the section, where I tell you about how my degree in computer science catapulted me into the world of tech right?

That couldn't be further from the truth,  I did a law degree at the University of Sussex, and realized very quickly that I didn't want to spend anymore time reading case law.

Worked for a large engineering company in London for a while, started moving up the corporate ladder, before deciding to relocate to Salt Lake City ( just to let everyone know there are far less pubs here)

I then found the world of technology and start ups & I haven't looked back.

I am extremely passionate about building relationships and tackling tough problems, specifically in the customer success and partnerships space.

I also have a personal interest in social impact and corporate social responsibility, so much so that I decided to start a business that focuses on B2B charitable gifting (check out Go Give)

Here we go! I’ve been looking forward to sharing this 👀


I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve joined LogicMonitor as Senior Director of Channel Revenue Operations, where I'll be leading global partner strategy, operations, & programs!

LogicMonitor is a global leader in AI-powered hybrid observability. Their flagship platform, LM Envision, helps modern enterprises gain visibility and predictability across their entire IT stack by combining cloud and traditional infrastructure into a single, intelligent view.

Need help with partner strategy and ops? Let’s talk! 🫱🏻‍🫲🏽 | Sr. Director of Channel Revenue Operations @ LogicMonitor 🧢 | 2025 Pavilion 50 Partnerships Executives to Watch in 2025 👀 | Ex-IBM | Speaker & Mentor 🌎

It’s wild how quickly important relationships can fade when life gets loud 🗣.


We get busy, life starts lifing, and suddenly weeks and months 🗓 have passed without checking in on the people who matter.

The best things in my life have always come from relationships. Not deals, not metrics, not AI. People 👊.

That is why I've been watching one of the best relationships builders I know, and my good friend, Josh Katz, turn his superpower into a product.

(curtain opens) Say hello to Knostra!

Knostra helps you stay connected with simple nudges and prompts so your important relationships never slip.

So, if relationships are part of your strategy, take a look: https://knostra.ai/ 😉

There's folks that make an impact the moment you meet them 💥...


For me, Sam Yarborough and Jason Yarborough 🐻 are two incredible humans that have made my life better since I met them, and that I'm lucky to call friends!

That's the message today, a simple one, I want to shout out two of my fave people, not only on this platform, but IRL.

(look at all the beary 🐻 cool swag 🔥 they sent... see what I did there 🤣?)

Thank you for being awesome, Sam and Yarby!

I'm grateful for you, for ALX, and for the Arcadia Constellation!


Be Great
Be Arcadia 🐻

🚨 PS go and listen to Friends with Benefits (this is not a sponsored post 🤣)

Community matters... especially right now.


In this market where things move really fast (or for some... painfully slow 😢), your network is one of your most valuable assets.

And it's communities that bring people together to share knowledge, open doors, and help you navigate whatever’s in front of you.

That's where Pavilion continues to stand out.

A couple of weeks back, Rich Gardner flew to ATX to meet members, listen, help, and talk openly about the future of Pavilion.

And, as always, this community showed up 🔥!

It’s moments like these that remind me how powerful the right communities can be.

A big thank you to Rich and Bijay Alex Mathew for putting this executive breakfast together!

I look forward to more moments like this!

PartnerOps might not be the stars of the show 🥱…


... but they make the show possible 🫳 🎤.

I had a blast joining Tyler Calder on the Get It, Together podcast to talk about one of my favorite topics: why PartnerOps are the unsung heroes behind every high-performing partner team.

Great partnership strategies and programs don’t scale because of fancy dinners or good intentions, they scale because the operational backbone is strong and efficient.

The systems. The processes. The metrics. The alignment. The visibility GTM leaders actually care about.

That’s where the unlock 🔓 happens.

And you know what's crazy (and a massive mistake)? Many partner teams get zero attention and support from RevOps.

Tyler and PartnerStack team, thanks again for having me on to talk about all the practical ways PartnerOps can help empower partnerships and bridge the gap with the rest of the GTM engine.

Want to listen 🎧 to our convo? Find the full episode in the comments.


PS. shout out to my good friend Victoria Flynn for one of my favorite lines ever: “Pitch water 🪣, not innovation, when their hair is on fire 👩‍🚒.”
