Strategic and creative marketing leader with over 25 years of experience in the consumer and professional electronics industry. As Senior Manager of Channel and Events Marketing, I drive integrated go-to-market strategies that support product launches, partner engagement, and revenue growth. I have successfully championed product lines from concept and development through market introduction, ensuring strong positioning and measurable impact.
I lead high-visibility initiatives including webinars, industry events, and channel programs that strengthen partner relationships and elevate brand presence. Known for collaborative leadership, innovative problem-solving, and strong cross-functional execution, I build programs that deliver measurable business results.
I’m a has-been geek turned manager, turned executive, turned (hopefully) into leader. I love technology and even more I love people. So what I find really interesting is the intersection of people and technology…and in so many ways, that’s my definition of AV.
