Driving $500M+ in growth through innovative GTM strategies, strategic alliances, and high-impact partnerships across global markets — from early-stage startups to Fortune 500 enterprises.
I'm a partnerships and alliances executive with two decades building AI and cybersecurity ecosystems for the world's largest tech platforms — including two tours at Microsoft, plus VMware and Avaya. My work spans mergers & acquisitions, joint ventures, and global GTM programs that have reshaped competitive landscapes across 38+ countries.
Under the partnership strategies I led, two client organisations earned Partner of the Year recognition across Microsoft, Amazon Web Services, and Google Cloud in the same year — Noventiq from Microsoft and AWS, and a separate Optimus client from Google Cloud — a Triple PoY recognition built on $1.5B+ managed business at 30% YoY growth, $500M+ in M&A, and a $17M hyperscaler investment (Project Titan) that returned 10x. The Microsoft recognition is publicly documented as part of Noventiq winning 2024 Microsoft Country Partner of the Year in 7 countries during my tenure as VP of Strategic Alliances at Noventiq. I advise technology companies on partnerships and M&A through Optimus, and write on alliance strategy as a member of the Forbes Business Council and Forbes Nonprofit Council writing on alliance strategy.
