The martech industry is broken, and I’m devoting the next 15 years of my life to fix it.

After a decade leading growth and marketing teams at places like Dropbox, Pilot, Magento and BILL, I realized there was no measurement tool on the market that was statistically valid, simple and holistic. 

So I went and talked to every CMO and VP of marketing in my network. Their number one complaint? Attribution. 

And this is why we built Paramark.

Because I believe that measuring your marketing efforts is not that hard. 

Through the power of MMM, experimentation and data science, we’ve created the holy grail of measurement tools. So marketers like you can confidently understand the impact of your marketing investments – and communicate them to your CFO and CEO.

Co-Founder & CEO

Before starting Paramark, I spent the last decade leading growth and marketing teams at fast-growing companies like Dropbox, Pilot, Magento, and BILL.

During that period, we evaluated hundreds of martech tools and, for the most part, were sorely disappointed. Here's why. We found few solutions that could handle the needs of fast-growing marketing teams. They were either incomplete, hard to use, or claiming things that were just flat-out wrong!

This trend is especially true for marketing analytics. Synthesizing and analyzing marketing data to understand effectiveness should be a solved problem. After speaking to hundreds of marketing leaders at some of the fastest growing companies, I was honestly surprised that the truth is far from it. Understanding and communicating the return on marketing investment continues to be one of the top challenges for marketers.

That's why we decided to build Paramark. Our goal is to help fast-growing marketing teams measure and forecast the impact of their investments, unlocking sustainable growth.

Marketers deploy $1 trillion/year in capital. Very little of it is analyzed correctly.

What's worse? There's an additional $500B spent on ops, staff, research, and analytics... and it's still a mess.

We’re fixing that — and 2026 is when it accelerates.

If you’ve ever wanted to help build the operating system for modern marketing, this is the year.

In 2026, we’re making three big investments:

1. Product. Expanding our platform to radically shorten the path from idea to launch, with finance-grade measurement our customers already trust.

2. Go-to-market. Scaling sales with senior leadership, new hires in SF and NY, and a dedicated events & partnerships motion.

3. Solution engineering. Growing the team that owns the full data stack — from validation and modeling to automation — turning complex marketing data into decisions people can act on.

CEO @ Paramark | Marketing measurement that CFOs & CMOs trust

Revenue-focused Product Marketing Leader | GTM Pro | Mentor

👋 Hi, I'm Alex!

I'm a fractional product marketing leader with 12+ years of experience in driving growth for B2B companies across diverse sectors like healthcare, technology, SaaS, start ups, education, and HR. 

I help companies clarify their product positioning, launch with impact, and build high-performing teams. I blend strategic vision with hands-on execution, balancing quick wins with long-term success.

What I bring to the table:
✔️ Growth-driven leadership: My background in demand generation and growth marketing keeps my "product marketing eye" on generating revenue, building brand, and executing key go-to-market plays.
✔️ Brand champion: Whether it’s speaking to a packed room of execs or crafting a compelling narrative, I know how to advocate for a brand.
✔️ Team player (and builder): I thrive on creating strong connections across product, marketing, and sales, ensuring everyone’s rowing in the same direction.
✔️ Leader and mentor: I’m all about empowering teams to stay focused, motivated, and collaborative—and seeing them succeed.
✔️ Numbers-driven: I’m a pro at tracking ROI, spotting what’s working, and adjusting course when needed.

I'm always up for a chat and am currently open to both fractional roles and full-time leadership opportunities in product marketing.
