The Purposeful Performer
I share how I went from a college dropout to a tech seller closing $50M in total contract value with iconic Fortune 500 brands in less than four years to building my own business on my terms. These lessons, gained over two decades, have been deconstructed into writing that I share in a weekly newsletter and daily posts on LinkedIn. Join me on this journey by clicking on the icons below.

Book a 1:1 strategy session with me to get more purposeful with your sales career.
In 2018, I came into my element when I became a strategic SaaS seller with the most innovative Artificial Intelligence company on the planet (as awarded by Fast Company), and in less than four years, I sold over $50M in new business by closing transformation deals with the world’s largest brands.
In 2019, I entered the coveted 7 figure annual earners club for the first time. I did it 3 years in a row before retiring from the corporate world at age 42 in 2022.
These results came about, not so much by focusing on specific sales techniques, tactics, and “hacks,” but more through designing and developing a unique way to operate consistently at an elite level.
This wasn’t always the case.
Like so many in SaaS sales, I fell into the trap of needing to hustle and grind to get to the top. And then once I got to the top, I had to do it all over again, month after month, quarter after quarter, and year after year.
That led to a vicious cycle of frustration, health issues, and burnout. It got so bad that I landed in the hospital in my early 30s due to a mini-stroke from overworking. Plus, I was stalling my earnings at $200K per year.
It wasn’t until I completely redesigned my work and life with more intentional integration that I found sustainable success and satisfaction.
The catalyst to changing the way I operated was adopting a “Human First” approach using design thinking principles. That helped me shift from an activity-based approach to an impact-based approach.
Today, I use my role as a digital creator to deliver content, community, and connections that help Purpose-Curious™ SaaS sellers learn from my successes and failures.
All of this is driven by my personal thrive system across three focus areas: Think, Operate, and Craft (TOC for short).
