About
With over 20 years of experience in leading sales teams and developing new business opportunities in SaaS, technology, data analytics across North America, APAC, and EMEA markets, and having lived and worked in 13 countries, I am a senior sales and strategic partnerships executive who can accelerate sales globally, grow portfolios of leading international brands, and win new business, boosting the organization's bottom line. As the Head of Sales at DropThought and SurveyMonkey, I’ve led global teams out of San Francisco, where I focused on: > Building fast-growing teams of Account Executives. > Developing roadmaps that align sales execution with company goals. > Collaborating across functions (Marketing, Legal, Finance) to create a world-class sales organisation. Beyond the numbers, I am deeply committed to the human side of leadership. As a Gallup Certified Strengths Coach and former VP of the INSEAD Alumni Board, visiting Faculty, and member of the MBA Admissions Committee at INSEAD my vision is to drive success by cultivating a culture of lifelong learning and customer-centricity. Before transitioning to sales leadership, I spent my early career in finance as an equity research analyst, hedge fund trader, and private equity associate. This experience shaped my analytical, data-driven approach to revenue growth.
