I help SaaS companies scale from early traction to acquisition. Over the past 20+ years, I’ve led SaaS companies through inflection points — from scrappy early-stage startups to $100M+ scale and acquisition. Along the way, I’ve helped drive four successful exits totaling over $2.4B, built growth engines that doubled revenue, and advised founders backed by Techstars, Vista Equity, Sequoia, and top-tier investors. Highlights: 🔥 As CEO of AutoRaptor, delivered a 4x exit in 24 months by rebuilding the leadership team, modernizing the platform, and driving profitable growth in tough market conditions. 🚀 At Upserve, doubled revenue from $20M to $40M, increased SQLs by 47%, and helped secure a $100M+ Vista Equity investment, contributing to its eventual $430M acquisition. 📈 With the SendGrid founding team, launched and scaled three consecutive venture studio models, resulting in over 20 funded SaaS investments and multiple products taken from concept through market validation. I thrive at the intersection of growth strategy, marketing leadership, and operational execution. My sweet spot is helping founders and boards navigate the messy middle: scaling teams, modernizing platforms, and turning growth into enterprise value. I’m now exploring full-time leadership opportunities where I can help drive the next stage of growth.
