Darwinbox's first US hire. Building and scaling Darwinbox’s presence in the U.S.— originally everything from GTM strategy and enterprise sales to partnerships and customer success. As we've scaled have been able to focus exclusively on enterprise sales.

Over the years have run my own GTM consulting firm ranging from part time to full time. After Ironclad I scaled back up to full time to get more reps working with founders. Eventually met the Dbox founders and the rest is history. • Clients included Gitcoin, Effectiv (acq. $136m), Alloy Automation, Raw Rolling Papers and The Generalist. • Consulted for clients across industries (heavy focus on SaaS, Web3, CPG) on GTM & market penetration (business development, brand strategy, and marketing focused on launching new products and markets). • Created sponsorships and partnerships and events with local, regional, and national media, musicians, and artists. • Managed and wrote social media copy, one client’s Instagram grew from 500k to 1mm+. • Identified and targeted key partners to create viral videos and win extensive coverage for clients.

Learned a ton about company building and sales. Closed some deals but was going to miss quota so they canned me before my first vesting cliff. Oops. Even so, I am a big fan of the people and company and really enjoyed my time there!

(IPO in 2022 $NOTE) Crushed quota and helped senior executives evaluate policy strategy and implement new technology. I'm a policy nerd so this was a ton of fun.

(Acquired by Sweetgreen) Ran marketing and sales to launch 2nd market for Galley, early-stage, high growth food delivery startup. Hired and managed a team, built and closed pipeline, ate so much delicious food. Realized I wanted to sell things that were more scalable (and higher margin) and started looking at the world of SaaS.

Learned how to be a BDR at the place that invented the Challenger Sale. Made a lot of cold calls. Realized pretty quickly that the pace and bureaucracy at big orgs isn't my cup of tea.

Interned at an IP law firm for a summer. Created and ran social strategy, used Google Analytics to update the website, wrote digital comms and press releases. Fun times.

(Acquired by Coca-Cola) My first experience with startups and hyper-growth. Did everything from running guerrilla marketing events for 1000+ people to going on sales rides with distributors and opening new sales accounts.
