Career Trajectory

I operate at the intersection of commercial strategy and technical execution. My career has followed a clear arc: from pricing and sales analytics, through demand planning and forecasting, into full-stack revenue operations leadership.

At Vizgen, I serve as a one-person RevOps function for a 120-person spatial genomics company, owning every commercial system, dashboard, workflow, and process across NAM, EMEA, and APAC. I don't just configure tools. I build custom applications, design compensation frameworks, define board-level metrics, and drive seller behavior change.

Every company I've joined had the same problem: revenue ambition outpacing commercial infrastructure. At Quanterix/Akoya, I rebuilt the entire commercial data model post-acquisition and stood up dashboards that exposed revenue leakage leadership couldn't see before. At SharkNinja, I turned a manual reporting operation into an automated analytics function and owned forecasting for a $250M+ product line.

How I Can Help
I help companies close the gap between revenue ambition and commercial infrastructure. If your systems, processes, or data aren't keeping pace with your growth, that's where I operate.
RevOps Infrastructure Buildout
"We need someone to stand up our commercial operations from scratch."
End-to-end commercial infrastructure design and implementation. Salesforce, Tableau, NetSuite, HubSpot, wired together with clean data flows, automated reporting, and scalable processes.
Post-Acquisition Integration
"We just acquired a company and our systems don't talk to each other."
Data model unification across CRM and ERP systems. Territory redesign, compensation harmonization, reporting consolidation, and process alignment to get both orgs operating as one.
BI & Analytics Architecture
"Leadership can't see what's happening in the pipeline."
Tableau Cloud infrastructure, Prep flow design, NetSuite and Salesforce connectivity, executive dashboards, and KPI frameworks that give leadership the visibility to make decisions, not just review reports.
Compensation & Incentive Design
"Our comp plans don't drive the behavior we want."
Compensation structure design with tiered payout models, product-weighted splits, quota frameworks, and interactive calculator tools that give reps clarity and leadership control.
Pipeline Operations & Forecasting
"Our pipeline data is a mess and we can't forecast."
Stage exit criteria, pipeline review cadences, coverage models, data hygiene, and forecasting frameworks that turn unreliable pipeline data into something leadership can actually plan against.
Commercial Clarity & Go-to-Market Strategy
"We have the product and the team, but we're not penetrating the market the way we should."
Market segmentation, territory optimization, ICP targeting, and sales enablement that align your team around the right accounts with the right tools. I take the complexity out of commercial operations so leadership sees clearly, reps execute confidently, and revenue follows.

Have a commercial operations challenge? Let's talk about what it would take to fix it.
