Over 40 years of experience transforming technology businesses across Asia-Pacific, including VP roles at Alteryx, Zendesk and Salesforce.
I diagnose what is blocking growth, design the response and lead the first phase of execution.
The work spans GTM strategy, interim leadership, market expansion, revenue operations and enterprise-sales transformation.
The aim is a repeatable revenue engine and a team that can run it without me.
