Director of Partnerships at Apollo.io (We're Hiring!)

I have 9+ years of experience in Partnerships and Business Development across the travel, fintech, banking, and SaaS industries. I have led collaborations with leading banks, payment gateways, tourism boards, hotel chains, retail brands, media agencies, and loyalty programs.

My key expertise includes cross-cultural communication, lead generation, negotiation, sales and outreach automation, scaling key accounts on tactical and strategic levels, building relationships, adaptive thinking, and tenacity.

I lived abroad in Istanbul and Dubai and is now living in Austin, Texas. I am passionate about food, travel, and boutique hotels. I am interested in tech and startups. I also enjoy listening to podcasts and audiobooks and binging on Disney movies. If you love these as much as I do, let’s connect.

Big news from ApolloNEXT! On Thursday, we announced one of Apollo.io's biggest product launches I’ve had the privilege to be a part of: Waterfall Enrichment. This was a massive cross-functional effort that simply wouldn’t exist without our partners. We launched with 18 partners powering the product, and we're so grateful to each of them for helping make this possible. 

Waterfall Enrichment automatically checks through all our data partners, so reps always have the most accurate emails and phone numbers without ever leaving Apollo. Special shoutout to Jessica Casler and Jeffrey Hsu. At the very beginning, the three of us worked closely to set up partner meetings, pitch the product, and bring them on board. 

We can’t wait for you to try it out and share your feedback. We’ll continue expanding our partner network, so if there are other data sources you’d like to see added to the waterfall, let us know. Sharing more details in the comments! ✨
