More Process Won't Create More Sales.
Most B2B & SaaS teams don’t have a lead problem—they have an execution problem.
I help teams untangle the mess, align their GTM motion, and finally turn strategy into results.

About Me: My Story
At work, I build better systems for activating strategies and teams. But, like you, l'm more than my job.
My ability to be effective comes from experiences you won’t see on my resume.
Wilderness emergency medicine taught me more about pressurized decision-making than any other aspect of my career.
At 19 I studied risk management and effective decision-making in a 3 month, immersive leadership development program. I also started consuming as much information as I could from thought leaders like like Simon Sinek, Adam Grant, Tim Ferriss, Brené Brown, Gabor Maté, Angela Duckworth, Rich Roll, Michael Gervais, Mel Robbins, the Gottmans, and so many more.
I got hooked, fast.
Since then, my interest and curiosity have only intensified.
It led to a career including roles as a:
- Director of Strategy & Operations
- Revenue Growth Consultant
- Leadership Staffing Director
- Sales
- Copywriting
- RevOps Strategy
- Growth Marketing
- Technology & Automation
I've extensively studied high performing athletes, business founders, and psychologists.
My ability to rapidly scale a startup showed me that what I was learning really worked. In my 20’s I guided backcountry expeditions in the Rocky Mountain West, coached big mountain snowboarders qualifying for the Freeride World Tour, and ran the Boston Marathon after recovering from a traumatic brain injury.
I also worked on the crew of a sailboat in the Caribbean, toured New England as a keynote speaker, and weaved through the service industry in a way that I like to think would make Anthony Bourdain proud. Or, at least, make him scoff a bit.
Life outside of the office has shaped my skill set as much as my professional experiences have.
Admittedly, I spend a lot of my time nerding out on sustainable systems and approaches to development. When not training for a marathon or enjoying a sunrise with my snowboard, you can likely find me frequenting local coffee shops and live music venues.
Outside of work, I have volunteered with the HOBY leadership organization since 2010, developing staffing teams and implementing curricula that inspire young people to become catalysts for positive change in their home, school, workplace, and community.
I've also spent time volunteering for local advocacy programs and coaching freeride snowboard athletes. As a member of the board of directors for Carving The Future, I advised on marketing strategies that empowered underserved youth in Wyoming by providing gear, programs, lessons, and athletic scholarships.
My contributions to Jackson Hole Snowboarder Magazine and NOLS' The Leader seek to elevate communities and voices who've got this life thing figured out.
I’m glad you’re here.
Thanks for being part of the journey.
onward.
