I'm a business development operator focused on partnerships, revenue growth, and GTM systems. Since late 2025 I've been building agentic outbound GTM systems spanning account research, intent detection, personalization, and outreach. I've closed $220K+ in cumulative partnership revenue and grants, progressed from intern to Head of Business Development, and automated onboarding, reporting, and proposal workflows to increase team capacity and execution speed.
