I help SaaS and high-growth companies unlock exponential ARR growth by building partner ecosystems, affiliate programs, and GTM systems that scale.

Unlike most leaders who specialize in either sales or partnerships, I bring both:
	•	Closed 7-figure enterprise deals as an AE.
	•	Built partner programs adding $10M–$40M+ ARR.
	•	Designed affiliate systems activating thousands of high-performing partners.

My approach blends direct sales experience with a playbook for recruiting, activating, and scaling partner ecosystems that deliver measurable revenue impact.

Currently applying this GTM playbook inside Instantly.ai, where I’m documenting the journey in real time — frameworks, wins, and lessons that any GTM leader can adapt to scale faster.

What I do best:
	•	Design & scale high-impact partner programs.
	•	Build integrated GTM systems combining affiliates, agencies, integrations, and brand alliances.
	•	Turn real-world results into repeatable, monetizable frameworks.

I also work with select founders, execs, and investors through consulting, advisory, and JV opportunities — helping them structure partnerships that multiply revenue and create leverage.

📌 Core Competencies:
• Partnership & Affiliate Revenue Growth
• GTM Architecture & Execution
• Enterprise Sales & Negotiation
• Strategic Alliances & Integrations
• Business Process Optimization
• Leadership & Coaching High-Growth Teams

If you’re building a partner-sourced GTM function and want to scale faster, let’s connect.

Connection is everything.

We’re still buzzing from an incredible week at Expo West 2026! ☀️

There is nothing quite like the energy of the Anaheim Convention Center when the best in natural products gather under one roof. The innovation this year was next-level.

But the real highlight? The conversations. We had the pleasure of meeting with dozens of mission-driven brands, both industry icons and emerging disruptors, to discuss the future of storytelling. In a world of digital noise, these face-to-face moments remind us why we do what we do: we don’t just buy products; we buy into the people and the passion behind them.

That same "booth-side" authenticity is what we strive for in every podcast sponsorship we build. It was an honor to hear your stories in person. Now, we can't wait to help you tell them to the world.

To everyone we met, thank you for the inspiration! If we didn’t get a chance to connect at the booth, let’s keep the conversation going. Send a DM and let’s chat.

Humans speak naturally.

We’re moving beyond the era of robotic keyword stuffing. Podcasting is the most intimate medium because of the human voice, so why is your SEO strategy still so mechanical?

Voice search is the bridge between a curious listener and your brand. By focusing on conversational queries and long-tail intent, we ensure your message is the one the AI chooses to recommend.
