Lake Tahoe Snowmobilers was founded in 2019 to promote mountain safety, access, and community. We have become the largest Snowmobile Club in CA and NV in just a few short years with over 2000 free members and several hundred contributing members. The club brings riders together through events, meetups, public service activities. We advocate for collaboration among user groups and our national and state forests. LTS is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization run by volunteers. All proceeds from memberships and events go right back into the club and snowmobiling community.

Global Head of Product Marketing, Ecosystem, Marketplace, Channel, Platform.

2023 - 2023

Global Head of Product Marketing

2021 - 2023

Reporting to our CMO and partnering closely with our CPO & CRO, my role is to help Atlassian build, market, and sell products that thrive in both self-serve and high-touch GTM motions. After a decade in enterprise sales and channel-driven organizations, I chose Atlassian to learn a new self-serve, product led GTM motion. Today, the fastest-growing companies combine high touch and self-service PLG motions.

Head of Product Marketing & GTM-Agile & DevOps

2016 - 2021

There are only about 40m software developers on Earth. That small group has had an outsized impact on every aspect of our lives in a short amount of time. Our mission is to empower those teams to collaborate on the big problems and the next great breakthroughs in technology, medicine, science, business, the environment, and education. At the same time, we must help the next generation of developers because 40m isn't near enough to accomplish what is already in the backlog and what has already been imagined. Typical sales & marketing often feels like a game of uninspired incrementalism. Imagine if all of that energy, creativity, money & process refinement went into the product. Imagine if the product had to sell itself without artificial deadlines & exploding price quotes. Imagine if the price listed for enterprise software was actually the price people paid. Imagine if design, content, support, QA & engineering were the functions marketing felt could help power growth and customer success. Imagine if you could create a company with ~12,000+ employees and ~250k customers that way. (Just 7 years ago when I started, we were 700 people and 40k customers.) That's why I've joined Atlassian. The way products are built and distributed is changing fast, and Atlassian is leading the way. Product marketing at Atlassian sits in the middle of product, design, engineering, and almost every function in marketing. From aware to active, brand campaigns to BOFU, SEO to SEM, events to experiments, launches, and PR, an Atlassian PMM role gives you the chance to be part of almost every function in a modern marketing team. The one thing we don't do a lot of is Powerpoint. Reach out if you are ever interested in learning more. We're growing fast.

Part of a Sr. leadership team charged with identifying research breakthroughs that could catalyze significant change in Symantec's core businesses.

Through a variety of branding efforts, industry participation & thought leadership we emerged as a leader with recognition among industry analysts & buyers.

Competitive Marketing Manager

2006 - 2007

• Made the competition irrelevant by arming our reps with competitive materials, training, and buyer research. Ask any of the almost 5,000 reps who worked at Symantec during this time about the 911 Competitive Program to get a feel for the breadth and impact of this program. ➢ Unique Challenge Overcome: With a $50K budget I was able to generate ~$500k+ in competitive research value through via a crowdsourcing effort that directly engaged over 1,400 unique Symantec employees across almost all functions. I am aware of 2 start-ups that have been spun up since who leverage this model to gather and then sell competitive intelligence.
