    Achievements

    I specialize in signing, managing and growing strategic partnerships. I have a computer science degree and 10+ years of experience creating value through strategic partnerships in mobile, data, online media and advertising. My expertise includes monetization across all facets of digital advertising, deal modeling, structuring and closing high impact partnerships. I’ve pitched, negotiated, signed and managed deals that significantly reduced a start-up's cost base, generated hundreds of millions of dollars of EBITDA for public companies and include a cornerstone partnership that helped a company get acquired.
