I am a playmaker/quarterback in the team. Currently spearheading commercial expansion at Forsta in EMEA region - I create vision, make strategic decisions, and bring the right people to make things happen. Professionally, I partner with Enterprise organisations, translating technology benefits into tangible business outcomes and ROI. This includes working a large security software company, a number of media and technology companies, and local councils to drive continuous growth, change and operational efficiencies through Human Experience technology. What is human experience? It brings the best of people and technology (market research, employee and customer experience) to close the gap between brands and their consumers. We work with our customers to drive cultural and digital transformation by leveraging insights gathered, analysed and visualized on the Forsta platform. For some organisations, it may be the start of the journey, for others it involves some fundamental transformation.

Customers include GSK, Rackspace, BAE System, Fedex, Heathrow, RS Components Swisscom and more.

I also provide consultations to SaaS revenue leaders in the start-up phase,focusing on UKI, CET, Scandinavia and US region, consulting them with GTM📈 and international expansion strategy. I have a consistent record of exceeding quota as an individual contributor. Highly passionate about SaaS business and international development. Experience in presenting both internally and externally to senior audiences. Outside work, I'm passionate about helping people of colour and non-native speakers to launch their careers in STEM sales through coaching. I also lead a local Toastmasters membership club and improve my public speaking skills. I am inspired to be a great storyteller like David Attenborough and Michelle Obama.
