Why does a Scientist make an awesome Customer Obsessed Revenue Growth Leader? #TheLabMindset

I was literally trained to experiment. Be extremely curious. Test, Refine and iterate! 

Research like a boss and use system level thinking!

It builds resilience (failure = reiterative process to get the desired outcome).

Document like a boss - I was trained if it wasn't written in black ink it didn't happen. 

Data driven decision making. Look for patterns to determine the best "lever" to change.

Embrace Change - always looking for ways to improve productivity/efficiency which help me look at the end-to-end CX (hello, bowtie) and find ways to reduce cost to serve for sustained profitability. 

Process/Frameworks are critical - how else do you design an experiment? (for business =GTM- Revenue Architecture model)

Communication -lots of papers written and one of my ninja skills is simplifying the complex so anyone could understand!

Present my findings and get grilled - Objection & Rejection proofed because I proactively prepared and expected this to occur.

Executive Member and Co-Chair of DFW Chapter

Pavilion, formally Revenue Collective, is a private membership organization for commercial growth operators. Our community is designed to support the professional development of revenue leaders at high growth companies, facilitate the sharing of best practices, and serve as a trusted private community.

One door opens. And somehow, a few more appear.

Last year, I partnered with Empressa AI  to help teach a cohort of women the foundations of AI. I said yes because I care deeply about access, confidence, and women being part of the future we’re all building.

What I didn’t expect was what that yes would unlock.

Through that experience, I was granted membership in the The WIT Network. 

And last night in Dallas, I found myself in a room full of thoughtful, ambitious women doing a 2026 bingo-style vision board, dreaming out loud, together.

I finally met Cass Cooper, MHR  in person and connected with so many other incredible women. The kind of room where conversations feel easy, honest, and expansive.

For anyone who’s followed me for a while, you know one of my goals is to land a TEDx talk. No surprise that square made it onto my bingo card. 

What did surprise me were the side conversations that followed. Panel and women  groups speaker opportunities. Doors I hadn’t even knocked on yet.

It was a reminder I keep coming back to:

You don’t always know where a door leads when you open it.
But momentum has a way of introducing you to the next one.

So I’ll ask you what I’m asking myself today:
What doors are you willing to walk through even if you can’t see what’s on the other side yet?

Sometimes, one brave yes is all it takes.

I see this a lot especially with high performers.

You look around.
You scroll.
You compare.

And suddenly it feels like you’re behind.

Behind on titles.
Behind on clarity.
Behind on milestones you thought you’d hit by now.

Let me say this clearly: you’re not behind.

You’re exactly where you’re supposed to be.

Growth isn’t linear. Careers aren’t timelines you can “win.” And feeling a little lost? That’s not failure, that’s usually the signal that something new is forming.

You are enough right now, not just when you land the next role, close the next deal, or figure out the next chapter.

Every season has a purpose:
• The messy ones teach you
• The quiet ones prepare you
• The uncertain ones stretch you

So if today feels uncomfortable or unclear, take a breath.

It’s not a sign you’re doing it wrong.

It’s a sign you’re evolving.

Stop measuring your chapter against someone else’s highlight reel.

Trust the unfolding.
Keep going.

You’re not late.
You’re not lost.
You’re becoming.

Texas is getting a little snow and freezing rain today.
And predictably… we’re all losing our minds.

Which makes sense.
We don’t have snow plows.
We don’t have the infrastructure.
We weren’t built for this season.

It reminds me of standing in Northern Ireland at the Game of Thrones studio, staring at the words:
“Winter is coming.”

Not as a threat.
As a warning.

In business, winter always comes too.
Markets shift.
Budgets tighten.
Deals slow.
Priorities change.

And the companies (and leaders) who struggle the most aren’t the ones hit by 🥶 they’re the ones who assumed it wouldn’t happen.

Preparation isn’t pessimism.
It’s leadership.

It’s building for business continuity.
It’s scenario planning when things are still calm.
It’s asking, “What breaks if the temperature drops?” before it actually does.

Texas isn’t broken it’s just optimized for summer.
And a lot of businesses are, too.

So as you’re sipping coffee this Saturday morning ☕️
Ask yourself:

👉 What season am I building for right now?
👉 And am I prepared for the one that’s coming next?

Because winter isn’t the problem.
Being unprepared is.

#leadership

Overthinking isn’t a thinking problem.

It’s a leadership one.

When leaders overanalyze:

 • Decisions slow

 • Direction blurs

 • Teams lose confidence

Great leaders don’t wait for certainty.

They decide, learn, and pivot when needed.

Movement creates clarity not the other way around.

Revenue Engine Enablement Orchestrator | AI Curious Human Enthusiast | (Back of the) Napkin Guy | Podcast Personality | SES History 🤓 | Perfektly IMperfect

Revenue Architect | GTM Strategist | Story-Driven Technologist | AI-Curious Human Enthusiast

With 25+ years in B2B growth - sales, marketing, ops, strategy, enablement, revenue architecture, contact marketing, and GTM AI - from Fortune 500s to early-stage ventures, my corporate journey is both deep and wide. 

Those scars (...er, wisdom!) combined with passion, curiosity, and persistence are key ingredients of my resilience, adaptability, and problem solving capacity.  I don't just show up with canned answers on the ready. I listen through the lens of experiences and then meet you where you are and chart the ideal next steps in your revenue journey. 

My sweet spot: blending human insight, empathy, creativity, and AI innovation to eliminate friction, accelerate change, and empower companies to lead the future - not chase it.  Hanging up the status quo blue- and white- collars of the industrial age and sliding into the "purple collar" of the digital economy confidently. 

As a certified Revenue Architect, creative #ContactMarketing enthusiast, and evangelist of cross-functional GTM Orchestration, I’ve spent decades in the trenches navigating digital disruption and optimizing sales motions.  I know firsthand that the key to thriving in this AI-driven world is staying human and guiding others - customers - both internally and externally - in leaning into our Given Gifting.

Let’s turn your next back-of-the-napkin dream, or obstacle for problem solving, into (recurring!) revenue reality.
