FOUNDER, EMERGENCE PARTNERS CONSULTING

GROWTH STRATEGIST & Revenue ARCHITECT

Most growth-stage companies don't have a strategy problem they have an execution gap. They know where they want to go; what's missing is the architecture to get there. That's where I come in.

Over 25 years, I've held senior executive roles spanning Chief of Staff, Chief Marketing Officer, Chief Business Development Officer, Chief Experience Officer, and Executive Leader for Strategy and Growth across financial services and national organizations. That breadth isn't incidental. It's what allows me to see the full revenue picture, identify where the real friction is, and build solutions that actually hold when the organization scales.

I know firsthand what it takes to grow an organization from $700M to $7.5B. That kind of growth doesn't happen through hustle alone. It requires data-driven decision-making, deliberate organizational design, and leaders who can build systems that outlast any single initiative. I've done that work at the highest level, and now I bring it directly to growth-stage companies ready to stop improvising and start scaling with intention.

The companies I've worked alongside taught me something consistent: the ones that grow well don't just have a great product. They have clarity on why they grow and a repeatable framework to do it again. That insight is the foundation of the GrowthAdvantage™ framework I developed, and the lens through which I approach every engagement.

If you're navigating the transition from startup to mid-market, mid-market to enterprise, or simply trying to build a revenue engine that doesn't depend on heroics, we should talk.
