I have deep experience creating value for private equity firms and their portfolio companies by optimizing Go-to-Market (GTM) strategies and driving measurable improvements in sales/commercial excellence. As a former private equity Operating Partner, I have advised deal teams and portfolio management teams to problem solve growth inhibitors, deploy and execute capital efficient growth strategies to achieve systematic and predictable scale within target hold periods. With a data and insight driven mindset, I collaborate with leading private equity firms and our phenomenal Blue Ridge colleagues to crank the revenue engine by harnessing innovation, proven methodologies, best practices, and tools to maximize go-to-market investments while operationalizing and driving sales and marketing productivity/effectiveness.Previously, I worked at consulting firms focused on growth and value creation priorities for VC and PE portfolio companies and had two successful roles as a PE-backed operator with P&L responsibility focused exclusively on private equity market. I combine been-there-done-that experience, high EQ, and empathy to build trust with investment partners, operating partners, and portfolio company leadership teams.
