  I’m a results-driven executive with a flair for turning data into dollars and forging game-changing partnerships in the automotive industry. Currently, I’m rocking the role of Director of Strategic Partnerships at Spectrum Reach, where I’ve had the pleasure of identifying gaps in our advertising tactics and building strategic partnerships that have positioned us as the first media organization accepted into OEM digital certified programs. The result? A jaw-dropping $45M in incremental revenue over just three years. Not too shabby, right?

I’m all about leveraging cutting-edge MarTech platforms and data-driven solutions to help automotive dealers and OEMs connect their advertising efforts like never before. My approach has made communication across tiers smoother than a well-oiled machine—leading to campaigns that are not just effective but also agile and efficient. Oh, and I’ve played a part in driving a whopping $400M in annual revenue. Talk about a high-speed chase!

Before I took on this role, I was an Automotive Sales Manager, where I designed strategic go-to-market solutions that turned dealers and agencies into partners in crime (the good kind, of course!). My knack for building relationships and developing killer sales processes helped us thrive in competitive markets.

I’ve been dubbed "Plug and Play" for my ability to adapt and deliver results in any situation. And let’s not forget my time as a Sergeant in the United States Army—I learned a thing or two about teamwork, discipline, and effective communication there!

I’m passionate about using my skills in strategic partnerships and revenue generation to keep pushing the envelope in automotive advertising. If you’re up for some collaboration or just want to chat about the latest trends in the industry, let’s connect!
