Operator · builder · Austin, Texas

I turn messy revenue work into systems people actually trust.

I built Confluent's GTM AI operating system, then helped carry it into IBM. That meant hiring the team, putting a production path in place, and measuring what shipped.

Leadership when it counted

A critical system broke for more than 800 people. I led the response.

When a Salesloft security incident disrupted the systems used by Confluent's sellers, SEs, and SDRs, I coordinated the response across teams, protected continuity, and kept the field informed while critical integrations recovered.

IBM integration

Named DRI for two CIO workshop workstreams.

AI tooling and processes, plus AI data sources.

People leadership

People on the team advanced.

I promoted one direct report, helped another earn top-company recognition, and trained builders outside my team.

What brought you here?

Full-time applied AI, GTM systems, or revenue operations.

Selected work

Confluent, UiPath, and Box.

Each chapter has a linked evidence page. The numbers on this page are the ones those pages also carry.

Applied AI

Confluent

What I saw

Experiments were multiplying faster than shared controls.

The call I made

Hire the team and put a production path, review gates, and adoption in one program.

What changed

$12M documented annual value. 122 production agents; 190+ agents and automations across environments.

Global GTM systems

UiPath

What I saw

A global stack carried too much cost, friction, and uneven adoption.

The call I made

Cut overlapping spend without losing the coverage the field needed.

What changed

$720K less annual GTM systems spend, with operating coverage kept.

Frontline leadership

Box

What I saw

Weak handoffs and fuzzy signals showed up first for the people carrying quota.

The call I made

Learn the work up close, then help the team run it with more clarity.

What changed

$1.4M in ARR through 570+ qualified opportunities, then team leadership.

Building in public

GitHub contributions, public and private.

A live view of my GitHub building rhythm across public and private work. Squares show daily totals only. Private repository names, organizations, code, and commit details never leave GitHub.

Loading contribution totals…

Private work contributes to the total, but its projects and details stay private.

Beyond the resume

Austin, Texas. Operator and builder.

I like work that makes complicated systems easier to run and gives people time back.
