Business Development & Partnerships Experts

I am a 20+ year sales & marketing executive that has worked at Fortune 500 companies (P&G, Google, and Meta), and have been a Chief Revenue Officer at an AI analytics startup. I have interviewed and managed people at all ends of the spectrum from new hires to VP / excecs, in the US and APAC. I have a passion for developing others and helping the next generation of leaders to succeed. My purpose in life is to help people connect the dots to breathe life into their imagined futures. I believe my frameworks can also help people figure out what they want out of their careers and personal success / happiness.

With experience across client strategy, account management, and relationship-driven growth, I’ve spent my career helping businesses build stronger client relationships, identify opportunities, and drive revenue. At ShopMy, I work closely with brands on strategy, retention, and growth. I’ve consistently exceeded revenue and retention targets, contributed to a 206% increase in client engagement, and driven more than $1M in incremental client spend each quarter. A big part of my role is understanding a client’s goals, identifying opportunities to expand the relationship, and building strategies that create value for both the client and the business. Previously, at Bloomberg, I managed relationships across a portfolio representing more than $30M in annual revenue. Through hundreds of client conversations and tailored strategies, I learned how to understand different business needs, build trust with stakeholders, and identify opportunities to strengthen and grow partnerships. I’ve also mentored junior associates and new account managers, helping them develop their communication, relationship management, and strategic thinking skills. If you’re looking to strengthen your approach to business development, improve your client and partner relationships, identify growth opportunities, or become more confident in relationship-driven roles, I’d love to help you build a practical strategy and put it into action.

Head of Business Development and Partnerships post-MBA, with experience building BD functions at early-stage companies and media organizations.

I’m an experienced business development and partnerships professional with 4+ years of experience across Fortune 500 companies in entertainment, streaming, and tech. I began my career at Disney, working across Marvel Studios, Disney+, Hulu, and Disney Channels, where I built global marketing partnerships and supported the growth of the streaming business. I later transitioned into advertising technology, where I became the youngest manager in company history and led multi-million dollar partnerships across industries including tech, travel, automotive, and retail. I have negotiated and secured first-of-their-kind deals with leading technology companies. Today, I work at Walmart, building strategic partnerships with some of the largest tech and social platforms in the world within a multi-billion dollar retail media ecosystem. Alongside my corporate career, I have helped students, early career, and experienced professionals land interviews and secure roles at companies like JP Morgan, Robinhood, Disney, Amazon, Google, Netflix, and Microsoft. I truly believe most people are far more capable than they realize, but often need the right guidance to unlock their potential. I help people refine their narratives and connect the dots across their experiences so their story is clear, compelling, and impossible to overlook. At the end of the day, the people who land the job are not always the smartest, but the ones who know how to tell their story best.

Business development is not something I stumbled into; it has been the thread running through my entire career since leaving university. I have worked every part of the process, from full sales cycle selling to booking meetings with VPs, Directors, and C-suite executives.

I know what it takes to perform at a high level in this discipline and, more importantly, I know how to break that down and teach it to others.

I’m a practitioner-first BD and partnerships coach with 10+ years building strategic partnerships, partner ecosystems, and growth initiatives across technology, education, workforce development, and AI. I’ve originated and scaled partnerships with organizations including AWS, Microsoft, Databricks, NVIDIA, IBM, Meta, ServiceNow, Coca-Cola, and leading universities—giving me a clear view into how strong partnerships are built, sold internally, and translated into measurable business outcomes. I’ve also been on the hiring side of the table, evaluating candidates for partnerships, business development, strategy, customer-facing, and cross-functional operator roles. As a Pathrise industry mentor, I coached 35+ mid-career and senior professionals targeting competitive roles at top tech companies, earning top 1% coaching ratings. My coaching goes beyond generic job search advice: I help candidates sharpen their BD/partnerships narrative, identify the right roles, prepare for hiring manager and executive interviews, and work through case studies, take-home assignments, and final-round conversations. My style is structured, direct, and highly practical. I help candidates think like partnerships operators—not just applicants—so they can clearly communicate how they identify opportunities, build relationships, influence stakeholders, structure partnerships, navigate ambiguity, and create measurable business impact. My goal is to help you show up as a clear, confident, and differentiated candidate for BD, strategic partnerships, alliances, ecosystem, and partner strategy roles.
