I am a B2B Commercial Transformation expert, specializing in “as-a-service and solution sales” business models to drive top-line growth.
I founded Sales Lift Solutions to help clients accelerate value creation to new and existing customers with personalized value messaging and selling solutions.

Previously, I was a catalyst hire at PwC Industrial Products and Services, where I grew the practice by integrating digital technologies and analytics to enable new customer experiences.

I worked with the Fortune 500 and innovative brands to apply AI, automation, and analytics to improve go-to-market - resulting in 30%+ cost improvements coupled with top-line growth and productivity improvements.

Over my career, I have developed a pragmatic approach to leveraging agile approaches for scaled commercialization and transformation from working across industries and applying digital technologies to legacy customer processes. I have sponsored executive forums in this space, authored a book, and write on key trends and innovations.
