About your mentor
Started as an entrepreneur, transitioned to Product Marketing @ Google, and moved into Tech Sales @ Microsoft, where I now lead a high-performing solution sales & solution engineering team as a Regional Sales Manager, helping clients unlock AI-powered business apps & agents.
Over the past few years, I’ve consistently ranked among the top-performing sales executives in EMEA, earning multiple exclusive awards (e.g., Platinum Club awarded to 0.005% of 65K employees). I’ve closed dozens of new logos (some mentioned by CEO Satya Nadella in earnings calls), led strategic initiatives (ex. a tech/sales academy for 300+ people), and worked closely with C-level executives to tackle challenges that resulted in multi-million-dollar deals.
What’s driven my 6 promotions in 9 years?
👉 Sharp focus on goals
👉 High-impact execution
👉 A relentless growth mindset
I’m passionate about learning and sharing knowledge through mentorship, coaching, and keynote speaking. I have formal training and hands-on experience in interviewing, hiring, mentoring, and leadership development at Microsoft, Google, and NGOs I’ve supported. My education includes an MSc in Tech & Management Science, a BSc in International Economics, and certifications from institutions like INSEAD and Challenger Inc.
Outside of work? You’ll find me scuba diving, snowboarding, or chasing my next adventure with a drone and boarding pass in hand.
