I work with B2B software companies to help them scale-up, so that they meet/exceed their business growth plan. I am a GTM Specialist with a lengthy track record in data management and infrastructure software sales. My operational experience includes worldwide MySQL sales leader, GM for the MySQL business, and worldwide leader of Linux, Virtualization and MySQL sales - all at Oracle. My tenure at Oracle - closing 57 quarters - has provided me with valuable operational ‘know-how’, along with the vision and understanding to help and mentor others.Prior to Oracle, I held regional leadership roles at MySQL EMEA, Sun Software North Europe, and Forte Software UK.I am a member of The Institute of Directors, an active community of UK business leaders. I have recently started contributing to the Rebus - Balance the Board gender diversity mentoring program run by Odgers Berndtson, Google, and London Business School. Away from work, I enjoy tech investing, motorsport, and watersports.
