Product Developer

I turn heroic individual effort into repeatable sales processes.

Most sales teams rely on individual reps to "figure it out" — whether that's prospecting or running POCs.
I systematize both:

Outbound:
✓ Map your market and prioritize by signal
✓ Build executable campaigns, not research homework
✓ Make your whole team operate like your best BDR

POCs:
✓ Standardize what works instead of winging it every time
✓ Define clear win criteria and execution playbooks
✓ Close faster without relying on your top AE's magic

The result: Scale what your best reps do, across your entire team.

4x Founding AE | I've lived the chaos. Now I build systems that scale.

Every email, web page, and social media post makes an impression on your customers.
With Grammarly, you can be confident it's the right impression.
