Fractional Product Marketing Leadership

I help B2B tech companies navigate the go-to-market moments that don't fit the playbook.

Go-to-market strategy for post-acquisition moments, product portfolio expansion, positioning resets, and high-stakes launches.

What I do

Product marketing leadership, without the full-time VP headcount.

Built for companies scaling through expansion and acquisition, where a growing portfolio has outpaced the product marketing behind it. At this stage, clarity, real signal, and alignment across teams are what keep growth compounding instead of stalling. Without strong product marketing leading that, complexity sets the pace instead of you.

01

Position for pull

Clarity on who it's for, why it matters, and the story that makes the right buyers lean in, across a single product or a whole portfolio.

02

Launches built for market momentum

I work back from your revenue forecast and timeline, so the launch strategy is built to hit that milestone, not just ship on time.

03

Unblock adoption

Finding what's quietly slowing traction, whether it's the muddy message, the wrong segment, or the missing enablement, and fixing the root rather than the symptom.

The approach

When the old playbook stops delivering.

You built a go-to-market playbook that worked. Then something shifted, the market, the buyer, the portfolio, and it stopped delivering. That moment is where I come in. I find what actually changed, then rebuild the strategy for where you are now, not where you were.

Diagnose what shifted. Customers, market signals, internal constraints, the real gap.

Design the foundation. A GTM strategy built for your business, realistic to activate.

Lead it, then tune it. Drive execution and adjust as the market keeps moving.

My POV

Beyond the work

What else I'm building.

I'm an avid learner and a keen problem solver. Paired with two decades in tech, that's what makes me believe I can make an impact well beyond the boardroom. This work is the proof, and it makes me a sharper operator for the companies I partner with.

A builder and strategist with range.

Twenty years bringing high-value products to market, across Microsoft, Zillow, and growth-stage tech. Retail strategy to big tech to PE-backed SaaS. One constant the whole way, taking what a company has built and helping the market finally see it.
