Experience

1. Principal, Red Hat Openshift (Growth Marketing Chief of Staff)

   Red Hat

   Sep 2020 — Present

   Red Hat OpenShift hit $1 billion in annual recurring revenue (ARR) in early 2023. On a typical day you\'ll find me create content that inspires joy in prospects + customers, while growing revenue for the organization. I span design, copywriting, interactive, film, and events to support a rapidly growing business with aggressive sales goals. I work across the entire sales pipeline from initial awareness all the way to contract renewal. I steer brand + product marketing direction, and support a creative culture that inspires great work. I understand nuance, think strategically, and build towards the big picture. In 2023, I took on Chief of Staff responsibilities in order to help streamline operations, create greater accountability across teams, facilitate communication, and improve efficiency and effectiveness.
