Product Marketing Manager  ·  B2B SaaS  ·  iPaaS & Embedded Integration

I'm a product marketer with 6 years of B2B SaaS experience, specializing in technically complex platforms where the gap between what a product does and what a buyer understands is widest. My work is built on two things: getting close enough to customers that their own language shapes the messaging, and building the internal relationships that keep insight flowing in both directions.
