Career Objective

Throughout my career, I have always sought out challenging roles focused on selling new products/solutions, succeeding in highly competitive markets or just building something from scratch. I want to continue that journey to leverage the unique skills and experiences which have proven to deliver rapid scalable success. My goal is to join a company that is mid sized, series A/B or funded start up who is looking to aggressively drive sales at scale. I am open to larger more established companies who want to take new cutting edge technologies to market through an expanded ecosystem. While I am looking for a full time employment, I am open to short term contract services previously provided under my consulting business CloudFuse.
