Strategic and results-driven executive with 20+ years of international leadership across SaaS, tech, hospitality, and service-based industries, delivering operational excellence and sustainable growth across EMEA and APAC.

A trusted advisor to C-level executives, I bring hands-on experience in designing customer-centric service models, transforming RevOps frameworks, and enhancing lifecycle value in SaaS and enterprise environments. I thrive in multicultural, matrixed settings and am passionate about driving innovation, mentoring leadership talent, and championing strategic change at scale.
