I’m a marketing and business development leader with a track record of driving growth across the energy, automotive, and technology sectors. My career has been built at the intersection of technical innovation, commercial strategy, and stakeholder engagement, helping organizations translate complex solutions into clear market value.

Most recently, I led marketing and business development for advanced emissions detection and abatement technologies, working closely with upstream, midstream, and downstream operators to support methane‑reduction, regulatory compliance, and environmental performance. I’ve partnered with organizations such as USTDA, GPA Midstream, and the Bilateral Chamber of Commerce to advance cross‑border initiatives in pipeline integrity and energy transition.

Before that, I spent six years shaping national brand strategy and promotional programs for O’Reilly Auto Parts, strengthening customer engagement, vendor partnerships, and retail activation. Earlier roles with Shell Automotive Lubricants and Philip Morris International gave me deep experience in distributor management, route‑to‑market strategy, OEM partnerships, and commercial execution.

Across every role, I’m known for:

Turning technical capabilities into compelling market narratives

Building strong relationships with operators, distributors, and industry partners

Leading integrated marketing strategies that drive measurable growth

Using AI to enhance concept visualization, messaging, and sales enablement

Navigating complex regulatory and environmental landscapes

Delivering results in fast‑moving, cross‑functional environments

I’m passionate about helping organizations grow—whether through stronger brand positioning, smarter go‑to‑market strategy, or deeper industry engagement. I thrive in spaces where technology, energy, and innovation meet.

Business development and strategic partnerships leader with deep expertise in accelerating growth across the energy, automotive, and industrial sectors. I specialize in aligning complex technical solutions with market demand, leveraging data‑driven insights, and building high‑value relationships that expand revenue, strengthen market position, and drive long‑term commercial impact.

My recent work leading marketing and business development for advanced emissions detection and abatement technologies involved partnering with upstream, midstream, and downstream operators to support methane‑reduction, regulatory compliance, and operational performance. I developed SEO‑optimized content strategies, AI‑enhanced sales enablement tools, and targeted outreach campaigns that elevated brand authority and opened new commercial pathways. I also built strategic alliances with organizations such as USTDA, GPA Midstream, and the Bilateral Chamber of Commerce to advance cross‑border initiatives in pipeline integrity and energy transition.

Previously, I directed national branding, vendor partnerships, and promotional strategy for O’Reilly Auto Parts, using analytics, customer segmentation, and omnichannel activation to strengthen engagement and maximize promotional ROI. Earlier roles with Shell Automotive Lubricants and Philip Morris International expanded my expertise in distributor development, OEM partnerships, route‑to‑market optimization, and commercial execution across diverse markets.

Across all roles, I’m recognized for my ability to translate technical capabilities into compelling value propositions, build influential partnerships, and apply modern marketing technologies—including AI‑driven content creation, SEO strategy, digital analytics, and automated campaign workflows—to accelerate business development outcomes. I thrive in environments where commercial strategy, technology, and industry expertise converge to unlock new growth.
