I am a family first man as well as being a baseball fanatic who strived passionately to go to the major leagues after playing the sport throughout college. After sustaining multiple injuries that ended that dream, I took that same competitive drive and applied it to my career where I have over a decade of leadership experience in Procurement and Spend Management.I hate to lose more than I like to win.Being one of the first 30 Coupa employees inspires me to be a game changer, doing what I can to win for the organization and myself. I am a co-Patent holder on Coupa Supplier Actionable Notifications and have worn multiple hats in various roles which include Presales, Implementations, Sales Management and Marketing to name a few. From a company of less than 50 people I have been instrumental in being part of the team that has enabled Coupa to become a unicorn and one of the best performing SaaS companies in the Market. I have been a key player in Coupa’s many major milestones, more specifically: being a key member of the IPO team (one of the few not on the executive management team) that helped make Coupa to be a smash hit through increasing our share value by almost 10X ongoing.Being able to advise, scale and grow businesses, while disrupting the status quo, has been a part of my skill set throughout my career. As the Vice President of Asia Pacific, I led the team with energy and vision growing the Asia business by 300%. I took over the ANZ region in late 2019, and grew its revenue significantly.I am a futuristic thinker and disruptor, willing to challenge the status quo. I am able to root out hidden assumptions and unstated fears that prevent most organisations from moving forward with positive change. I am an industry speaker for RiseNow on most critical & strategic areas pertaining to CPO, CIO and CFO strategy around supply chain & business spend management, transformation, disruption and strategy execution."If you ain't first, you're last" - Ricky Bobby
