About me

\n I'm a partnerships pro with 13+ years of experience. I'm the\n person companies hire to be their first partnerships hire — to\n build the function from zero — or the workhorse brought in to\n tackle the partnerships everyone else has been avoiding.\n

\n I create commercial, product, and brand partnerships that\n deliver trifecta value — for the business, the partners, and\n the customer. I've done it for global firms like American\n Express, Visa, and Citibank, and for startups, with a knack for\n influencing C-level partners, building trust, and driving\n growth across cross-functional teams.\n
