Building growth where networks meet silicon.

I lead go-to-market for Telecom and Semiconductor across North America — turning deep engineering capability into partnerships that deliver.

Based in Seattle, WA Pacific Northwest tech ecosystem

The short version

I'm a senior go-to-market leader focused on the two industries quietly rewiring everything around us — Telecom and Semiconductor. My work sits at the seam between complex engineering and the business decisions that turn it into revenue.

Today my focus is North America growth across Telecom and Semiconductor — building the strategy, relationships, and account plans that open Tier-1 doors. Before growth was my title, it was the through-line of everything I did: find the real problem, bring the right people to it, and make the path from idea to signed work obvious.

I care about clarity over noise, specificity over spin, and doing the unglamorous work that makes big partnerships actually happen.

What I do

Four things I'm known for.

Not a service menu — the places where I actually move the needle.

01 / GO-TO-MARKET

Growth strategy that ships

Market sizing, account targeting, and pursuit plans that translate directly into pipeline — built to survive contact with a real sales cycle.

02 / TELECOM

Tier-1 carrier partnerships

Positioning engineering capability for operators navigating autonomous networks, OSS/BSS modernization, and security-first infrastructure.

03 / SEMICONDUCTOR

Silicon-side go-to-market

Mapping where design, verification, and validation spend is moving — and building the case for engineering partners across the chip value chain.

04 / ECOSYSTEM

Pacific Northwest bridge-building

Connecting global capability to the Seattle region's operators, investors, and founders through active community and partner work.

Beyond the day job

Things I'm building.

Side projects where I get to be operator, not just advisor.
